Good Start Monday

Hello Parents and Students, 

Today, we started our day off with reviewing Money to $10, 000 in math; where the students were estimating, it didn't matter whether the students rounded to 50 to 100 as long as they rounded both the numbers to the same place value. 

Next, we learned about temperature (°C) and we researched the average range of temperature in Mississauga. The students then worked on the temperature worksheet in class. For homework, the students have a math review packet, for tomorrow the students must complete page 1 and 2. If they complete the entire packet then tomorrow we will play math review games. The tentative date for the math test is Wednesday. 

In language, the students completed their literature circles for chapter 9-12 of Percy Jackson. They did a great job of discussing with their groups and adding extra details in their answer. 

In UOI, we completed a 4-minute brainstorm activity as part of the design cycle (artefact summative). Here are some pictures from the activity. 






We then created a class list of what our museum will look like next Monday. Here is a picture of the board afterwards. 

The rest of the period was spent on students researching and designing their artefact. Some students have even started making it! Students should bring in materials to build their artefact by tomorrow.
