Hello families!
This final week before Spring Break was full of finishing up projects!
We worked on Lit Circles final projects to celebrate our learning through this process. We also practiced using thesauri to find synonyms to make our writing more engaging.
We worked on our Rube Goldberg machines all week, and the class had fun making their machines fulfill funny tasks like throwing away a small piece of trash, rolling a marble into a box, or putting toys away. They were a creative and industrious bunch as they adapted and modified their original plans.
In Math, we practiced the process of long division, then made peer teacher videos to demonstrate our skills.
In Restorative Justice, we shared appreciations of one another with a kindness circle activity and played group games.
Today (Friday), we had two assemblies. In the first, the primary students and Grade 7 band performed the music they have been working on this term! In the second, we had a performance by Monster Theatre titled “We Now Know: The Complete History of Science.” It was a funny and high-energy production teaching about everything from atoms to Marie Curie. It was a fun end to Term 2!
Report cards were sent home yesterday. Schools are closed until Monday, March 30th for one week of Spring Break and one week of school closures.
I hope you all have a healthy, restful and fun Spring Break. I am looking forward to more learning in Term 3!
