Every child has a dream,

Homework 
- NO math
- Novel study prologue questions 1 - 4 
- Bring snack for the theatre 
- Spelling questions and practice 

The students started the new math unit Data Management and Probability.
Corresponding Math Makes Sense Unit 5 and 11. 


The students began reading Shannen and the Dream for School. The novel retells the story of Shannen and 
her efforts to lobby the Canadian government to build a new school. She is a advoacte for children's rights and 
spearheaded the movement to have a school built in Attawapiskat First Nation, Northern Ontario. 

As an introduction the students discussed the characteristics of a safe and comfy school. 
They were surprised to know that the basic necessities were denied to the children in this story.
