Short and sweet today. Our day began with the Grade 6s off at a rock climbing field trip. While they were scaling walls, the Grade 5s reviewed their spelling words and created sentences using this week's list of election related words. After recess, we started our Online Shopping Challenge Power Point presentations. While all the students were given the same parameters for the assignment, I loved seeing the variety of their purchases, the reasons behind their purchases, and the amazing work they'd done creating their Power Point presentations. To put an exclamation mark on our day, the class was introduced to their latest assignment...BUILDING CATAPULTS!! The class was shown 4 different prototypes, then were partnered off to begin the design process. The goal is to have the catapults ready for tomorrow, so that we can test each groups cup crashing ability.
REMINDER & HOMEWORK: Please study for tomorrow's spelling quiz, and finish the spelling sentences if they weren't completed in class. (All the words can be found on the English Page.)
