Students were tasked to use connecting words or periods in order to correct the sentences.<\/p>\n<p>Then, we started to work on a question from Unit 2, Lesson 3 but didn&#8217;t have enough time. We started copying down the Venn Diagram and sorting numbers as such: left side: odd numbers, right side: numbers with a 0 in them, and the overlap in the middle meant it was both an odd number and has a 0 in it. Students in their groups came up with numbers that would fit in each of the categories. We will continue working on this on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>After, students went to Music and had recess and snack.<\/p>\n<p>Following snack, we planned out our Weekend Journals since there is no school tomorrow. Students were tasked with outlining: If you were magically transported into your favourite book (or any book) what adventures would you have?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Students first need to write which book they would transport into in their introduction, then provide 3 adventures they would have inside of the book with details and in separate paragraphs, and then write a conclusion to finish off their piece of writing. This will be due on Monday and students need to complete the Student Checklist before handing in their journals.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Then, students looked at their plan for Day 2 and completed research in partners for their Social Studies projects.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch, we did more coding on iPads. We talked about the expectations between partners and I generated random partners for the students to work with. Students did quite well working together and being considerate of their partner as well as sharing the device\/helping. I explained to the students that I am going to mix up groupings this year in order to have students get to know other students and to work on their social skills in getting along with new people. I emphasized again that not everyone in the class has to be their best friend, but they need to be kind, considerate, and respectful to everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Then, we had community time (free time) and then went to the library.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reminder: Spelling Test is on Thursday, October 28th &#8211; next week.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Have a great weekend!<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Wilks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Parents, Today, we started off with taking up the run-on sentence homework.
