Friday :)

Hello parents and Div 02 students,

Wow this week was super busy.  There were all kinds of things happening and we made it through all of them.

This week in room 231 we explored the following:

Math- we looked at ordering decimals, adding and subtracting decimals and multiplying decimals.

Science- the grade 6's started their electricity web quest and the 7's discussed how ecosystems are organized.  We also did played with Lego and snap circuits and linked that to how electricity works (simple circuits, switches, current etc)

LA- we are learning how to write a paragraph (topic sentence, supporting details and concluding sentence).  We also continued to read our class novel "My Name is Seepteeza" and worked on our fluency project with Lynn Swift, Carol Walters and Kara Dawson.

Gym- we focused on some basketball skills and fit camp started up again.

Social Studies- we looked at different types of maps, important elements on a map and the difference between relative and absolute location.

Science Tech- the student continued to explore blogging and we connected it to our paragraph writing.

Thanks for a great week.  See you all on Monday.
