Inquiry into Language 

Today students completed their spelling paragraph using their chosen 8 words.

Inquiry into Math 
Today students continued our very short unit on number and geometry patterns. We looked at number patterns and figured out if they were getting bigger (adding) or getting smaller (subtracting) and then we looked further to find out by how much. We learned this part is called the pattern rule. We then practiced this skill.

Students then read over a recipe of a chicken and tomato sandwich. Next students chose their favourite sandwich or wrap and wrote a recipe plan. Tomorrow students will write their good copy.

Inquiry into Language 


Today students listened to the story



They then brainstormed their definition of what caring means to them. Once this was completed they then discussed examples they could think of from their life, t.v, movies, and books of caring. Lastly we completed a poster page explaining our ideas

Inquiry into Simple Machines 

Today students were introduced to our new unit about structures. Students learned about different materials and how they can make strong and stable structures. They also learned about what types of materials are poor for making strong structures. We watched science max, which helped to explain this to us⁠ Science Max - How You Build It - Full Episode⁠⁦‪youtube.com‬⁩

Students then brainstormed famous strong/stable structures they know. We also discussed the summative for this unit. They are very excited about this!
