Happy Thanksgiving everybody! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
It is a long weekend this weekend, so no school on Monday!<\/p>\n
Today we worked on estimating sums. The students had dice and had to roll a 3-digit number and round the number to the closest ten. e.g. 328 -> 330. The accompanying lesson is Lesson 4: pages 47-48 #1-6 and this is homework if they did not finish it in class.<\/p>\n
We also had a gallery walk of the different provinces\/territories shoeboxes – the students did an amazing job on these and I will be posting on Fresh Grade the videos and pictures I took of the shoeboxes!<\/p>\n
The students’ Math playground design plans are also due on Tuesday – they need to create a playground and calculate the area of each part of their playground and write a paragraph description.<\/p>\n
We also had buddies and community time today.<\/p>\n
There is also a weekend journal: students need to write 1\/2-3\/4 of a page about Thanksgiving and what they are thankful for, what Thanksgiving means to them, and any traditions that they may celebrate with family or friends.<\/p>\n
There is also an FSA notice going home today for the provincial exam and the Hot Lunch Form (it is due on October 21st).<\/p>\n
