Terrific Tuesday!

We will also be having our next math test on Thursday.  

Attention all parents and students: We are having our Spring Fundraiser to raise funds to support our Science and Physical Education Program! There will be a variety of exciting EVENTS with a number of amazing PRIZES for students to win through their participation! 

Some of the big events to make note of for THIS week are:

April 21st: Sundae Fun Day!

What an exciting two weeks!!

Furthermore,

A Pledge form went home in efforts to renovate the school’s science lab and PE program. We kindly ask that all donations be turned in by Thursday, April 28th, 2016. All students who collect a minimum donation amount of $35.00 will be treated to a bowling party on April 29th!


Prizes can also be won for students who raise money! Grand prizes include a movie and pizza party; this is for the class that raises the most money!

We began the day writing our homework in our agendas and then we began reading a book that would help us understand the importance of helping our planet and ways that we can reduce, reuse, and recycle.

We were then off to eat our pancakes!!!

When we came back, we continued brainstorming ways that we can help our planet and we used those ideas to make posters that will be hung around the school to inform others about the importance of Earth Day and how they can help.

After first recess and lunch we learned about perimeter and area. We learned that perimeter is the distance around a two-dimensional shape. We did an example as a class to understand how we would measure and calculate the perimeter of 2-D shapes. We also discussed that area is the size of a surface. So while perimeter would be when we measure the outside of a 2-D shape, when we measure the area, we are measuring the inside of the 2-D shape. We then practiced measuring the area and perimeter of various 2-D shapes.

We then had French with Mdm. Stella.

After second recess and lunch, Karina presented her cultural doll and her brochure for Portugal.

After, Krina showed us an app that can help us learn more about helping the planet while having fun!! Great action Krina!!
The App is called Koda Quest.

We then worked on an activity where we discussed how we are balanced learners. When we are balanced learners, we ensure to take care of our mind, body, and feelings.
