Hello everybody!

I am at Suncrest today so I won’t be able to answer answers really quickly. Please continue to post questions in the QUESTIONS only chat channel on Teams.

Here are the learning opportunities today:

We are starting off with student voice for your progress reports. You will be typing up your thoughts of the year, much like the one you did for term 1 and 2. Please find the assignment on Teams. Full effort and detail please!

For math, we will continue on Math IXL.

• Grade 4’s: Q8
  • Key point: Area is the space inside a shape
  • Key point: Perimeter is the space around a shape
  • No video tutorial
• Grade 5’s: Z8
  • Key point: formula for volume is Length x Width x Height (LxWxH) 
  • Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/I9efKVtLCf4  

Continue to develop your French on Duolingo!

Here are your learning opportunities for the day!

Class meeting at 2:00PM today. I have some news to share. We are also going to brainstorm a list of things that we did each term. Please come with memories of things that we did this term in class. This will help you on your “progress report snippet” assignment that I will be giving to you next Monday. (It was originally supposed to be assigned today but I decided that we should brainstorm together during this meeting first)

We are continuing with our core competency PowerPoint. Today, we’ll be working on slides 9 and 10 which focus on critical thinking. Please find full details as well as the tutorial video playlist of Teams.

Please use the rest of the day to work on French, typing, or your science project. Remember that you science project is now a “do at your own pace” assignment. It will be due next week.

I will be unavailable for most of the day because of meetings. I will check Teams and my email once in a while, but I won’t be able to respond very quickly. Please use the “QUESTIONS ONLY” chat channel on Teams to ask questions. Please help each other out by answering your peers’ questions.

Here are the opportunities for the day:

Our class meeting for today has been moved to Friday at 2:00PM.

For math, continue working on math IXL.

• Grade 4’s: Lesson Q7. Click here for your video lesson.
• Grade 5’s: Lesson Z7. Click here for your video lesson.

 

For your core competency PowerPoint, please work on slides 7 and 8 where we will focus on creative thinking. Again, be honest and think of your strengths and areas for improvement. Find assignment details as well as the tutorial video links on Teams.

We will continue with French on Duolingo.

I will be able to answer your questions quickly today!

Here are your learning opportunities for the day!

For math, continue on Math IXL. Grade 4’s will work on lesson Q6. Grade 4’s do not have a video tutorial as the lesson is somewhat straightforward. Grade 5’s will work on lesson Z6. Grade 5’s can click here for your video tutorial.

For science, you will be introduced to our project. Please… PLEASE watch the video tutorial. There’s a LOT of information in that video. Remember that you have the choice of either doing a PowerPoint presentation, or a form of your choice (pamphlet, poster?). Make sure that you review the criteria and rubric on Teams. This is a WORK AT YOUR OWN PACE assignment. I suggest working on 1-2 slides per day, it is ultimately up to you. The assignment will be due at the end of next week… but I’m not firm about the date yet.

As always, continue strengthening your typing on ATRT.

No class meeting today. Our next class meeting will take place this Thursday at 2:00pm.

Like yesterday, I will be teaching at Suncrest so ask your questions on the “Questions Only” chat channel and I’ll try my best to respond quickly.

Here are the learning opportunities for today:

For writing, you will be learning about rhyme schemes. Afterwards, you’ll be writing a limerick poem. Limericks are funny and have an AABBA rhyming scheme. You’ll learn about this when you find the assignment on Teams. Make sure to watch the tutorial video(s)!

For math, continue on Math IXL. Grade 4’s are working on lesson Q5. Grade 5’s are working on lesson Z5. Both grades don’t have a video tutorial so click on “learn with an example” if you need it. Remember that area is the amount of space inside a shape. Grade 5’s: draw your work out if you need to. These questions that you’ll work on are multi-step ones, so take time to think and take time for a break if you need it.

Hi everyone. This week will look a bit different.

1. I will be at school teaching on Monday and Tuesdays. There is a new chat channel called “Questions Only”. Obviously, this is meant for questions only. If you have questions, please post them there and I will try my best to get back to you as soon as possible. Feel free to answer your classmates’ questions if I haven’t already. I decided to make this because in our regular chat channel, there are too many messages and I will likely not see your questions there.
2. No class meetings on Tuesdays. We will have one class meeting a day, and this day will be on Thursday.

Here are your learning opportunities for today:

Continue your core competency PowerPoint. We are working on slides 5 and 6. Please find the video tutorial playlist and other information on Teams. Be thoughtful, fair, and honest in this assignment.

We will continue math on IXL. Both grades have 1 lesson. Q4 for grade 4’s and Z4 for grade 5’s. Both grades do not have a video tutorial, so if you have questions, ask in the questions only chat channel and click on the lesson on IXL.

Continue to strengthen your French on Duolingo.

See you on Teams (or in person!)

Hello everybody,

Thanks for your patience thus far. I have been busy restructuring the classroom as some of you will be coming back to school. Parents: if your child is returning to school and I did not call you yesterday, I will likely be giving you a call today.

Today will be a catch-up day: catch up on assignments that you have not yet finished that are due next week.

Your big task of the day is to continue working on your core competency reflection PowerPoint. The assignment has been updated. Please watch the tutorial video on Teams (slides 3+4). You will be reflecting about how you communicate. Be sure to provide me with some examples.

If you are done, visit the resources page and continue to develop your skills in Math (explore IXL or Khan), French (Duolingo), and typing (ATRT). Visit Ms. Fletcher’s blog and see what she has posted!

Optional: Paper Airplane Day was on May 6 (3 days ago!). Use materials at home and explore different folds and types of airplanes! If you do this, try to record it and send it to me. Myself and your classmates would love to see it! Click here to try some paper airplane activities!

Hello everybody. Please see our learning opportunities of the day below.

We have a class meeting today at 2:00pm. See you on Teams!

For math, both grades have 1 lesson on Math IXL. Both lessons are about finding the area of squares and rectangles. Remember that area means the amount of space inside the shape, whereas perimimeter is the distance around the shape.

• Grade 4’s, click here for your video lesson. Click here for a bit more of a “challenge”.
• Grade 5’s, click here for your video lesson.

There has been a change in our weekly schedule. We will not be working on social studies this week. We may continue it next week.

Instead, we will begin working on our final core competency update for our report cards. You’ll be developing a PowerPoint presentation which will be referred to on your report card. We will be using the PowerPoint to show what you are able to do. Please find the instructions on Teams.

• You have been assigned two slides today. The first being your title page, and the second being a slide that captures your thoughts of this year.

Please watch the tutorial videos and ask me questions if you have questions.

 

 

Hi everyone, please see below the learning opportunities of the day:

For science, please find your assignment on Teams. You will be deciding a biome to focus your mini project on. This activity will help you plan for your project. Please do not submit the assignment as it will be updated next week.

For math, you will be exploring the term perimeter. A perimeter is the distance around a shape. Both grades have lessons on Math IXL. Please click here and here for video tutorials.

Continue to practice your French on Duolingo and your Typing on ATRT. If you’d like, you can also check out Prodigy. Find yesterday’s post or hit resources on the top bar to find out how to set Prodigy up.

Hi everybody,

Please find your learning opportunities of the day below.

Unfortunately, our class meeting today has been cancelled. Our next meeting will be on Thursday at 2:00.

For math, please finish up your math mini project as it is due today. Ask me questions through Teams or by email. If you are finished the project, you have some self-guided math time on either Math IXL, Khan Academy, or Prodigy. Click here and scroll down for a tutorial on how to setup Prodigy.

For ELA, you will be writing 2 free verse poems today, using yesterday’s poems as inspiration. One poem will be a happy, positive one and the other will allow you express some sadder thoughts. Please make sure that you’ve completed yesterday’s ELA assignment before starting this one.

See you on Teams!
