A Peek at the Week: March 6-10

New spelling words along with a sign language guide went home today. We learned about sign language while we studied our sense of hearing, and today our grade 6 buddies came and helped us create 'secret messages' we communicated using sign language. Using the sign language guide might be a fun way to practice this week's spelling words, which went home today. 

We started a new science project using Google Classroom on our Chromebooks today all about protecting our eyes from the sun, while we learn about the sense of sight and wrap up our 5 senses unit!

We continue to learn about adding and subtracting in math. The students wrote their own word problems today. I am so impressed with how their writing is coming along! We are learning all about 'action words' (aka verbs) in writing, and are having fun acting out what we write. 

This week, we have ATB Bank Day tomorrow and Pizza by the Slice lunch on Friday. Pizza is $2.00/slice. Please send your pizza money in by Friday first thing in the morning. 

Swimming lesson registration forms went home last week. They are due next Wednesday, March 15th.
