This week in math students reviewed concepts in decimals and wrote a quiz on decimals. That quiz included percents and ratios for grade 6s. The quiz will be handed back to go home to be signed early next week. Our next strand will be geometry.
In language and science students continued their project of creating a toy, device or product that transforms energy. They are also creating a commercial to sell their product.
Students also continued to work on a speech that will be presented to the class. Students will refined their science projects, commercials and speeches during the week. They will present next week.
On Thursday our class took a trip to the AGO. We looked at the works of various Canadian artists, including Tom Thomson and Lauren Harris. In the afternoon students participated in a workshop, creating prints. Many thanks to our parent volunteers, Howard and Tanja, for coming with us!
Homework for this week:
1) Read for at least 20 minutes each day.
2) Practice saying your speech so that you're ready to present on your due date.
