Math
Marbles!Come in all shapes and sizes, you can measure them in a variety of ways. The students today measured time and distance. They created a track 8 metres long and measured how long the marble took to reach the distance of 2, 4, 6 and 8 metres. They started graphing the data and will finish the work tomorrow.
Language
Today the students were given a challenge. Create a lesson to teach their peers the rules of writing plural nouns. A second group of students collaborating on possessive words lesson.
Music
As usual after lunch the students had a music lesson with Mrs. Angus. Parents please check their agenda to see which pieces they have been asked to practice.
UOI
The students concluded their introductory lesson to The Market place. This unit of inquiry focuses on Canada and its trading partners.
In the first part of the lesson (Tuesday) the students were divided into 4 countries: Brazil, Canada, USA, and China. They traded natural resources, fuel, food and manufactured goods to simulate what happens in the real world. They quickly discovered that not all trades are fair and some negotiations can quickly break down.
