Good morning Division 6 and happy Monday!  Thanks for everyone that completed the CORE COMPETENCIES STUDENT REFLECTIONS last Friday.  If you need to still complete it, please hand it in and submit it on MS TEAMS by TODAY (if possible).  The CORE COMPETENCIES STUDENT REFLECTIONS need to be completed – it is mandatory.  It is different than the STUDENT THOUGHTS AND REFLECTIONS that we did the previous week.  Our CLASS MEETING will be on WEDNESDAY from 11:00 to 11:30 this week and we will continue our discussion on culture. I want you to discuss one (or more) aspect of your culture.  It can be about a favourite food, holiday, or celebration.  Here is today’s schedule:

  • CORE COMPETENCIES STUDENT REFLECTIONS – Please complete this reflection by TODAY. It shouldn’t take you too long, but you do need to reflect about the CORE COMPETENCIES that we have done. This is mandatory and needs to be completed. Upload your reflections onto MS TEAMS. Thanks.
  • PE WITH JOE or JUST DANCE videos – Choose between PE WITH JOE or choosing JUST DANCE videos. If you have some other exercise that you found online, then do that. Exercising every day is important to your overall health.  We’re going to increase our time for PE WITH JOE or the JUST DANCE videos up to 30 minutes.  Try your best to get your 30 minutes of exercise every morning.  This is part of our regular routine. Drink plenty of water and take breaks when needed.
  • RAZ KIDS – Please do RAZ KIDS for 30 minutes today. Try your best not to go over the 30 minutes that I ask.
  • POETRY – Just in case you don’t know, Ms. Driussi is leaving Suncrest at the end of this year. So, I think it would be really nice if all of you created an acrostic poem using Ms. Driussi.  Let’s hand this acrostic assignment in on WEDNESDAY.  Upload it to MS TEAMS. Thanks.
  • POETRY – If you haven’t completed your POETRY PPT PROJECT, please work on it. Create a PPT based on the poems that you have learned:  acrostic, alliteration creature, cinquain, haiku, and limerick.  For the acrostic poem, you can choose whatever topic you want to write about.  For the alliteration creature poem, you can create a new alliteration creature poem, a brand new alliteration poem, or use the same one that you prepared already.  Read the instructions for the PPT on MS TEAMS.  The due date was last FRIDAY, JUNE 12TH.  Have fun creating it!
  • MATH – I want you to work on IXL today. Do the questions to 30 minutes. Grade 4s, I want you to do the questions for INEQUALITIES WITH ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION.  Grade 5s, I want you to do the questions for ADD AND SUBTRACT MONEY:  WORD PROBLEMS.  If you make any mistakes, read the corrections carefully. For more background information, I’ve added a video for you about adding and subtracting decimals in word problems:
    • ADDING AND SUBTRACTING DECIMALS WORD PROBLEMS | DECIMALS | PRE-ALGEBRA | KHAN ACADEMY (copy and paste or type in your internet browser the following):
    • MATH – I also want you to play the games on COOL MATH 4 KIDS for 25 minutes. Play the addition and subtraction games.  Then play the multiplication and division games.
    • SS/CE – if you still have to complete your FAMILY CULTURAL PROJECT, please work on it. The instructions to the assignment have been uploaded to MS TEAMS.  The due date for the FAMILY CULTURAL PROJECT was last FRIDAY, JUNE 12.  This is supposed to be a fun and educational assignment to learn about your own culture.  It is a great time for family discussions and to learn about family history together.  You can call or video chat with grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins to gain more knowledge if possible.
    • PRACTICE TYPING with Dance Mat typing or if you found a website that you like, then you can use it. If you have completed Dance Mat, you can redo it for now. Practice for 25 minutes.  Practicing everyday will help you get better at typing.
    • MUSIC – Please remember to check Fletcher’s blog for updates. Her blog is on the Suncrest website at https://sd41blogs.ca/fletcherp/
    • MS TEAMS – You can use the chat option with each other after you have completed the day’s activities. It will be open at a different time today. It will be open from 10:30 to 1:30. I will be available to talk to you guys if you have any questions with any assignments.  Or if you just feel like chatting with me, that’s okay too.  Remember, this week’s CLASS MEETING will be a discussion about an aspect of your culture.

That’s all for today.  See you guys tomorrow!
