Hope you enjoyed the beautiful sunshine we had this weekend!
Such a nice change from Thursday night and Friday.
We have a lot of interesting things on the go in our class these days. Students have been working on their music lyric essays, discussing underlying themes and meaning, as well as historical, social, political, and personal contexts. The thinking the students have done is amazing! Their rant assignments are shaping up to be fabulous as well.
Ask your child to rant to you-they will be videotaping themselves ranting at the school using our technology so it would be good practice for them to do it for you.
We are currently working on a patterning and algebra unit where we are looking at developing input and output tables and using algebraic expressions to represent a pattern. Ask them about it-sharing information with others and discussing a topic is a great way to solidify their understanding.
Tuesday-Good luck to the boys basketball team at their tournament in Owen Sound
Wednesday-International Pink Day (wear pink to support anti-bullying)
Thursday-Good luck to the girls basketball team at their tournament in Owen Sound
-Jersey day
Friday is Good Friday and Monday is Easter Monday-there will be no school. Hope you have a great long weekend.
Don't forget to bring gym clothes and an indoor pair of running shoes.
Writing prompt: What would you do if you could travel free anyplace in the world?
Have a great week!
