November 4, 2013

We started today with Reading Workshop, and we began that with an O.W.I. which was an entertaining photo of a dog and an orangutan.  Some of the observations were quite keen, and the wonders were interesting too.  Then I read from 'Matilda' for a while, and then the students did a D.O.L. quiz, where they had to correct the errors in 10 sentences.  This has been sent home for signing.

The students have this week's spelling words, and then we did some yoga for DPA again.  They are amazed at how flexible the woman leading it is!

We then had WW, and the students continued on their personal narratives.  Some are reaching the publish stage, and when they complete their writing they will start another.

The students then had Math, and the Grade 4 students finished Page 54, and then went on to adding 4 digit by 4 digit numbers.  The Grade 3's did some review work sheets of place value.

Following our lunch break, we had Science.The students worked with shadow, and we did an experiment where they discovered that the surface area of an object affects how big the shadow will be.

Please help your child look over their S.S. map for tomorrow.  They need to know where all the provinces and territories are in Canada!  If they are in Grade 4, they must be able to spell them as well.
