Students had the opportunity to participate in a school tour of Sir John A. MacDonald. While touring the school students did a scavenger hunt and learned all about what options they could take. A notice went home about how to register for the options in powerschool for next school year.
In math we have been learning about decimals. Students have been able to take their understanding of fractions and interpret this into a decimal. They will soon be working on adding and subtracting decimals.
In Science we are wrapping up our learning around Sky Science. We will be having a quiz on Wednesday March 4th, their Sky Science sketchnote will be due at this time as well.
In Social we have been writing a news article for an event that happened in Ancient Athens. The events are ranging from a decision made on Pnyx Hill, a trial that happened, or an event that happened in the community. Students will be wrapping up their article this upcoming week.
We will be having a meeting on Tuesday, March 10 for any parents who are interested in having a conversation about what the Grade 6 Farewell is going to look like. We will chat about what we have done in the past.
