Marvelous Monday!

Structure Information

Students will bring in a photo of a structure they are familiar with. They will research information about their structure, including the materials used to build it, it’s location and it’s function (what an object is used for). Students will present their structure to the class on Friday, December 11, 2015.

We began the day having French with Mdm. Stella.

During UOI, we discussed the difference between strength and stability and how it is important that structures are both strong and stable.

We also watched a video to better understand why structures need to be stable and strong; we looked again at the houses built by the three little pigs:

 stability and strength 

We then defined strength and stability in our UOI notebooks.

Afterwards, we continued making predictions for our new novel study, Freckle Juice. We thought about what Freckle Juice would do if someone would drink it and then we designed and coloured what the freckle juice would look like. We cut them out and put them onto our cover page for our Freckly Juice duo tang.

Following first recess and lunch, we had physical education with Ms. Lovan.

We then moved onto Math. We continued working on solving and creating two-digit addition stories.

When we were finished, we began working on our Spelling work.

After second recess and lunch, we wrote our homework in our agendas and then continued working on our spelling work.

Homework:
1. Read for 20 minutes
2. Math pg. 97-98
3. Cursive
4. Spelling 53-56
5. Structure presentation due Friday
