Happy Wednesday Parents!

We began our day today with some more math review in preparation for our math test tomorrow! We went over the entire review today as a class to ensure that everyone understands all of the different questions, we focused on some questions in particular that are more challenging! The class then worked from the textbook review while I circulated and offered assistance where needed!

In language we worked hard on our Christmas concert play! I am so excited and most of the students have their parts completely memorized! We are now working on bigger expressions and using loud, clear voices while speaking!

After lunch, recess, and French we had another very exciting day in UOI students learned about static electricity! We started by watching a short video to try and decipher what the definition of static electricity is and then we were very good inquirers again to see how different objects reacted to a positively charged balloon (charged by rubbing our hair!) some objects stuck and some didn't! We learned that opposites attract! Objects with the same charge will not touch but those with opposite charges will pull together!
Hard at work!

Our Student-Created definitions for our UOI concepts are filling up the wall! We are learning so much!

Watching a short video for research!

Charging up the balloons!

Tissues would stick to our charged balloons!

After second lunch and recess we went over a few more important math concepts and then we went to classes to collect donations for the food and toy drive! The tree in the front lobby is still looking a little bit bare! We then headed to gym, and completed agendas before kiss and ride!
