Our day began with some basketball dribbling relays and drills, for gym class. As has been the case, since we began Basketball last week, I was very impressed with the skill and progress of the classes. At this rate, we might be able to play games next week!! After gym, all the grade 5s from Division 8 & 10 joined me in my class, for a group activities based around survival skills, communication and consensus. While the grade 5s were busy debating the merits of canvas tarps, axes and chocolate bars, the grade 4s were working on their literacy and numeracy FSAs with Mrs. Gore. After recess, those who had completed their FSAs, headed outside for some DPA, while the rest finished up the online portion of their assessments. After lunch, the students had time to rehearse their Science presentations, then we were fortunate enough to have Emma, Erica, Chloe C & Tatum present us their projects. Once we had cleaned up, the students handed out their Valentine's Day cards and candies, and we capped off the day with some art.
HOMEWORK: Students who didn't present, should review their material. Also, please finish the Hamburger paragraph writing work from earlier today. (I will hand out this week's spelling words tomorrow, but if you would like to get a jump start on studying, they are posted on the English page.)
REMINDER: Next Monday is early dismissal, and Friday is a Pro-D day.
