Monday!!!

Welcome back after another beautiful weekend.

We started our morning with our Daily 5 routine.  After our first round, we practiced our hand writing. Next, we challenged our spelling to prepare for our new set of Words Their Way.

During nutrition break, Mrs. Zwack continued reading 'Pax'.

We then moved into Readers' Theatre with Mr. Demman.  He read us a poem, showing us how this type of reading is different from finding facts in a text book or reading a menu.  We practiced reading with a focus on punctuation and expression!!!

In French with Mrs. Kenna, we continued to practice the names of different fruits.  We were also challenged to find the name of a fruit or vegetable that we enjoy and return next Monday ready to share how to say it in french.

After lunch, we had Math where we discussed division. We talked about division as sharing and practiced some scenarios to explore sharing in equal groups.

In Science inquiry, the engineers looked at reverse engineering.  We have taken ideas from our brainstorming session to investigate how similar ideas around us already exist - moving forward we will investigate - "how does this information help us?"

In gym, we took advantage of the beautiful day to play soccer.  Mr. Demman shared some ball handling skills with us.  After giving us time to practice those skills, we used them in a game that was a combination to Tag and Keep Away.
