We were back to our usual routine of beginning our day with
math. In today's lesson, we examined geometric growing patterns. Students drew
pictures to show what frames 4 to 6 would look like based on what was happening
in frames 1 to 3. They wrote pattern rules to describe the pattern. They drew
and completed tables to predict what would happen in later frames, such as
frames 12 or 14.
In language, students wrote the Ontario Writing Assessment,
which tests their writing skills. We finished up our novel study of Little
House in the Big Woods. We discussed why the it was okay for Pa to go
hunting again, and why he came home without any meat. The grade 4 students
agreed that they would have been happy to eat bread and butter for supper too.
Next up was our inquiry work on the Wendat and the
Anishinabe. Today was the last day for students to use internet sources to
research information that helps us to understand the way of life for these two
First Nation groups during the 1800s. Starting Monday, students will use their
inquiry class time to work on their final projects for this unit. They should
come to school with any materials they may need. Pioneer Duo-tangs are coming
home today as students are writing a unit test on Monday to show what they have
learned about Pioneers.
We ended the day reading with our Kindergarten Reading
Buddies.
Students attended French class today.
