In arithmetic, we continued practising finding the least
common multiples of given numbers.
In language. students wrote their list 34 spelling test. Tests
are coming home today. Please take time to review the test with your child. We
had our second literature circles group meetings to discuss chapter 2 of The
Secret Garden today. I got to enjoy listening to the discussions of a
second group today. Once discussions were completed, chapter 3 and new roles
were assigned. We discussed a new role that was introduced today - summariser.
The remainder of class time was used to read chapter 3. Chapter 3 reading and
the new role must be completed for Monday. It is important that The Secret
Garden books and reading duo-tangs be brought to school daily as we will be
having daily group meetings as well as time allocated in class for reading.
In our plants and soils unit, students continued working on
their erosion awareness poster that informs the audience about what erosion is
and what we can do to prevent it. Good copies were due today. Some students had
to use their recess time to finish up their good copies.
