Hello Div. 5

Today we have our Class meeting at 11am!

Our weekly mystery science: Is Earth the Only Planet with Life? 

  • On teams, you will find your reflection activity and a creative planet project extension!

We have had a lot of time to reflect on what is important to us during the last few months, and examine the world around us. In this creative planet project, you will get to dream big and think of a new place entirely. As you are starting this project, there are some big ideas you might also be thinking of:

  • This year, we talked a lot about sustainability and climate – will your new planet have the climate utopia you dreamed of?
  • We have seen examples of inequality and injustice in our world this year – what are your hopes for this new place? What will rights and responsibilities look like for this new planet? Will everyone be welcome <3

Looking forward to our meeting all together at 11!

Happy Tuesday! 

Today please continue to work on your Country Inquiry Project. Keep exploring what you’re interested in and dive deeper into that topic. What else are you curious about? If you are finished please make sure you’ve checked the self-assessment. You can also go look through your assignments and complete any unfinished work.  

Today there is a new writing assignment posted! Make sure you read the instructions carefully!!

Please remember that Ms.Yee is doing in-class learning and will not be able to reply to you promptly. Be patient and kind, try to problem self yourself, or ask your peers for support!

Good morning, Div. 5

I hope you had a wonderful weekend with your families. This week, some families will be coming back into our school building, and some families will be continuing their learning journeys at home. I wanted to share this video with you. Our connections might be harder to feel right now, but even though we can’t give each other hugs, or see everyone in person, we are still connected.

If you are learning from home today, you can check out your math channel!

You can also start our new Creative Planet Project! Inspired by our country inquiry project, you are going to start a creative extension of your learning! This assignment will be available on Teams as well!

Hello and Happy Friday Div. 5!

 

Check out our lovely new rainbow crosswalk!! So exciting! <3

Yesterday your families should have received an email outlining what to expect for June 1st! For those of you returning you will be split into two cohorts based on last names.

      • A-L last names will be in the Monday/Tuesday cohort
      • M-Z last names will be in the Thursday/Friday cohort

Please make sure you take a look at both of the letters! It has important information for your family to know and understand before you return in June!

Next week will be the first week that some of us will have in-class learning and others will continue with distance learning! Be patient and kind with yourself and your family! It’s going to be different for all of us! At this time I’m not sure if what zoom and team events we will have next week. Make sure you check the schedule on the top of the general page for updates! I will have a better idea of what I can schedule for the week on Monday!

 

Today there is a new figurative language assignment all about personification!  

Check out your individual math team for a numeracy activity!  

Where you able to find any bees or other pollinators this week? Check out these lovely photos from some Div. 5 Scientists!

 

 

 

 

 

Have a lovely weekend Goobers!

Good morning, Div. 5,

Today we have a read aloud at 10:15am!

Our third term has been so different than we ever could have imagined. I am so glad we have been able to stay connected in many different ways.

We have many friends, classmates, and teachers that we haven’t been able to see for a long time. For today, we would like you to create a special message for your little buddy class! You might want to remind our little buddies that we miss them and hope they are feeling well and happy. You could:

  • record yourself reading a picture book (just like Ms. Carley has done)
  • create a poster/drawing/art
  • write a letter
  • create a card
  • take a special photo to send
  • share your best wishes in another way

Once you send your video, photo, or creation to me, I will send it to Ms. Kim to share with her class. Thank you for sharing your leadership and care with our little friends in Division 11.

Keep on Reading!

Spend at least 20 minutes reading today! Pick up a book and find a comfortable spot! Be on the look out for similes, metaphors and hyperboles! If you don’t have anything to read at home you can always check out Epic Reading!

Currently on Epic Div.5 has read an AMAZING 1271 books!!!! You’ve also read for over 475 hours!!! Wow!

If you’re looking for a new book, one of our classmates has recommended a newer series called The Terrible Two! This is a great series about a pair of pranksters. You might recognize one of the authors Jory John, he also wrote some of Ms.Yee’s favourites, The Bad Seed and The Good Egg!

Good morning, Div. 5 Scientists!

Sorry for the later than usual post of today’s assignments but it was because of exciting events at UHE! Our RAINBOW CROSSWALK is being painted today!!!!!! Here’s how it is looking at this moment!

Start your morning with this stunning video: The story of Flowers

Today our mystery science is: How do bees make honey? 

  • At UHE, we have been busy bees trying to create a pollinator garden with pollinator hotels for our roof! Even though that project has been delayed, we can still start our learning about the importance of pollinators! There are so many different pollinators on Burnaby mountain! Can you see some today visiting flowers? What are their favourite flowers? What can you learn about pollinators today?
  • Check out your teams assignment for our reflection and extensions!

Check out your math channel for some numeracy activities!

Greetings Div.5

We have a read aloud at 10:15 am today! I hope you can join! I am heading into the school today, so I might not reply to you as promptly as I have been. Please remember to be patient & kind, try to problem solve or ask your peers for support!!

Today is Tuesday, so that means it’s inquiry time! How is your PowerPoint coming? Have you looked at the self-assessment rubric yet? It is posted in the assignment #4!

There is another figurative language worksheet for today! This one is only one page and asks you to identify whether a phrase is a simile or metaphor!

Lastly, it’s important for us to stay moving, you can check out this link for a guided workout!

Hello Div.5

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! Today we have a class meeting at 11am on zoom! I hope you can make it! 😊

  • There are two new assignments posted today in our classroom Team! The first is our third mindfulness journal. Today being Monday and a fresh start to our week, I’d like you to try and start your day practicing being mindful. This entry combines a little writing and some art!
  • The second assignment is taking our beloved Guess Who game and going digital with it! The more categories you can come up with the better!!
  • Lastly please check out your grade specific math Team for your math assignment for today and Tuesday!

Just a heads up, this week’s distancing learning might look a little different than previous weeks as your teachers prepare for students to return June 1st! There is a lot to do in preparation for students and staff to come back to UHE! There might be times where we are unable to reply to you as promptly as we have been. Remember to be patient, try and problem solve yourself, ask your peers for support, and stay calm!! Be kind to yourself. Be patient with yourself. Be kind to your family. Be patient with your family. This whole situation we’ve been experiencing over the last few months has been difficult in so many different ways. I just ask you to remember to be kind and patient, we’ll get through this!!!

Have a wonderful Monday Div. 5!
