Happy Monday Parents!
Today we began with Math, we are learning more about data
management and graphing. Today we focussed on interpreting circle graphs (or
pie charts). The students looked at a series of circle graphs and identified
what they represented. We are going to focus more on interpreting graphs this
week, some students are still having trouble with Venn Diagrams as well, as a
result I will be sending home another Venn Diagram Sheet in order to have
students practice.
As a reminder, there are two loops in a Venn Diagram, in one
loop there is one specific characteristic (i.e., blue shapes), the other loop
represents another characteristic (i.e., all squares), and in the overlap goes
the items with both characteristics or attributes (items that are blue AND
square).
In language we read chapter 8 of LHBW where Laura and her
family went to Grandpas house for a dance. After reading we worked on writing
formal invitations to go to Grandpa’s house. The students were required to use
their best writing skills, including proper punctuation and spelling in order
to complete their letters.
For spelling this week we have a review week, that being
said the students spelling words are not in their agendas. They will be
required to complete the Lesson 6 work in their workbooks and then for their
test I will select certain words for the students to be tested on. That way the
students will refresh their memory on all of the words we have learned so far.
After Lunch and recess the students had French, when they
came back they were provided with more time to work on their UOI brochures as
some students haven’t finished their pictures, those that were finished worked
on their letters.
After second lunch and recess the students had music. After
music the students were provided with some class time to practice their UOI
presentations. We had time to complete some of the UOI brochure presentations,
so far the students hard work is really paying off! Stay tuned for some of the
videos!
We then completed our agendas before heading off to kiss and
ride.
