This week in math students wrote a quiz on probability that went home to be signed and returned. Students began a probability project, creating a board game that uses probability.
In language students learned about the history of Japanese Canadians during WWII and wrote beautiful haiku poems on the topic. We also created cherry blossom art pieces. Our Junefest canvas is of cherry blossoms, and is dedicated to the Japanese Canadians who were put in internment camps in Canada during WWII.
Due to the rescheduling of the track meet, I moved the due date for the social studies projects to Monday. On Monday students will present their projects to the class, and teach each other about their various topics.
Important upcoming dates:
Monday, June 15th: social studies project due
Wednesday, June 17th: Mono Cliffs forms due for grade 5s
Thursday, June 18th: tour of Glen Ames for grade 6s
Friday, June 19th: pool for grade 5s, graduation for 6s
Tuesday, June 23rd: poetry cafe and celebration of learning (Parents are invited to attend.) 8:35- 11:25; Conquer Cancer with a Kick 3:45-4:30
Thursday, June 25th: last day of school- a bittersweet day :-)
Homework for this week:
There is no homework folder homework for this week. Students need to continue to read daily for at least 20 minutes each day. Social studies projects are due on Monday.
Best,
Bronwyn Davidson
