We began our day with a math lesson on comparing and
ordering improper fractions and mixed
numbers. We used three different methods to do this: number lines, equivalent
fractions, and pictures. Students asked to complete questions Q 1, 4 a, c, f, 5
a, c, 7, 10 & 11 on p. 296 & 297 of the MMS textbook.
Students spent the first part of today's inquiry time completing
their central idea, lines of inquiry, and concept questions. Most groups met
with their mentors today. Students who were done continued working on their
action plan, their art component, or collecting information. As a class we
discussed that part of being an IB student means being internationally minded.
This involves speaking more than one language. Students discussed what the
French component of the exhibition might look like. They discussed their ideas
in their groups during the day. At the end of the day we met to discuss ideas.
We have now agreed as a class what the French component will be. Students will
begin working on this on Friday. Tomorrow is our tip to the library. Students
are reminded to bring their library cards with them tomorrow. Students who do
not have a Mississauga
Grade 6s had French and Gym class today.
