Hello!
We had a lot of fun this week with Halloween on Thursday. There were some cool costumes.
In math we learned about rounding, estimation, and addition. It took a couplenof days, but most of the class got rounding down. Addition was more of a review, as most students seemed to have remembered their past strategies.
In language arts we focused on reading our Goosebumps novel study, where most students are finished and have started typing up their synopsis. On Friday the students wrote about their Halloween night, sounds like a lot of fun occured.
In science we finished off our solutions unit with a review and a final test. It gave me a good idea at where they are at with their learning. Some students may need to rethink studying to help them prepare.
In social studies we went over the BC election, discussing minority and majority governments. We then researched the federal parties, as it is good to know the difference.
For art we made some symmetrical pumpkins.
On Thursday we had a pumpkin carving contest, as I do this every year to help strengthen team building.
Next week we will look at subtraction in math, synopsis writing in language arts, remebrance day for social stidues, and review our voting in Canada information for a quiz.
Have a good weekend and see you Monday.
