Fantastic Friday!




We began the day with our SJA Oral Competition. I want to say how proud I am of all the Grade 6 students who worked so hard to write and recite their speech. Standing in front of a group of people takes a lot of courage and bravery!!!!



Here are our top six students who all did such a phenomenal job reciting their speeches!!!!



Our top three students are: 


After first lunch we had French.

Then moved onto math. 

Learning Goals: to recognize transformation images  
3 types of transformations? (Translations, reflections, and rotations)
-What is a translation? (A translation moves a figure along a straight line)
-What is a reflection? (A reflection is a flip. The figure and it image face opposite ways and are the same distance from the mirror line)
-What is a rotation? (A rotation is a turn. The figure and its image may face different ways)


Students can watch these videos to gain a better understanding of transformations.

We did some examples as a class and answered questions about transformations and how a figure has moved. Students are reminded that we are looking at how the original figure has moved to create an image. 

Success Criteria:

I understand that: 
- a figure can be transformed using a translation, a reflection, and a rotation
- a figure and its image under a transformation are congruent
I can identify a:
-translation 
-reflection
-rotation 
Of a figure 
I can draw a:
-translation 
-reflection
-rotation 
Of a figure 

After second recess and lunch we continued working on our UOI project. We shared our information with our partner and began working on the storyboard. 

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and Year Ahead Day on Monday!!!!!
