Language Arts: We are incorporating the Daily 3 into our Language Arts. Our main focus is reading, writing, and word work. We have been writing short stories and newspapers in order to prep for the grade 6 PAT's. Math: Our centers have started in Math. Each day the students are divided into smaller groups and they move through the different centers. Each day there is a mini lesson, different math games, Mountain Math, and other activities that the students complete. Each mountain math board is up for two weeks with the questions due at the end of that time. Pictures will be displayed on the "Extra's" page.
Science: Mr. Morrison is teaching Science to our class. The first unit the students will be learning about is Air and Aerodynamics.
Social: We have been working on Local Government and will finish off the year with Provincial Government and review.
