Marvelous Monday!
This morning students had art with Mr. Monaghan and physical
education with Ms. Lovan.
When students returned we reviewed the summative assessment
for our unit of inquiry that students will begin on Wednesday. Students will be
working on the assessments in class. A rubric and an outline of the assignment are
going home today. We then worked on a Venn diagram, finding comparisons and
differences between Mississauga and India. We focused on food, clothing,
shelter, transportation, and recreation.
During math, we created number line mysteries for our
friends. Students were given a number line up to 50 and asked to cover up five
numbers. Their partner needed to figure out which numbers were missing and
explain how they know (ex: I know number 16 is missing because 16 comes before
17 and after 15). Students then worked on a number line activity in their Math
Makes Sense. Afterwards, we used our number line to count by 2s, 5s, and 10s.
During first recess, Klara was teaching the students some
Karate and how to count to 10 in Korean.
After first recess, students went off to French.
When students returned, they wrote their homework in their
agendas.
After second recess and lunch, students wrote out their
spelling words for unit 4 and demonstrated their understanding of each word in
their spelling workbooks.
We then continued learning about Daily 5. This week we will
be focusing on writing. On the board, ‘work on writing’ was modeled for the
students. We learned that we work on
writing by thinking about our ideas; it was modeled for the student what
happens in a writer’s head. As we came to words that we were not sure of how to
spell, they were underlined and the writing continued. It is important to move
on when a word may be too difficult to spell so we can maintain the flow in
writing and not lose our thoughts; we will come back to the words we are unsure
of how to spell after we have finished writing down all our thoughts and ideas.
