This week we finally had a gym and music and all the students were really happy about it:)
In music, they learned an indigenous Cree Song and listened to some drumming along with Mrs. Layton.
We finished up our name tags for our coat hooks, and are continuing to complete bookmarks and our time capsule. We read a Newsella article in groups of 3 and reviewed why annotating articles is important. We started to look at supporting details within articles and our own paragraphs.
We watched a video on Terry Fox and even heard an audio recording from his brother Fred Fox. All grade 5 students wrote a letter to Terry and focused on why they would tell him or ask him if he was still alive.
We played Rainbow Logic, a strategy and communication game.
Our school theme this year is COMMUNICATION. We brainstormed what does communication means and the different forms that come to mind.
Please look at each teacher's twitter pages below to see all the cool things we do at our school and classroom.
