MATH

LANUGAGE

Today we visited the library for some quiet reading time, while some of us did our DRAs. We also took up the spelling homework from over the holidays.  I have started a reading log book for the students. They are expected to read for at least 20  minutes everyday. They can record it in their reading log. Reading logs will be checked every Friday. The first one will be checked on Friday, January 15^th.

UOI

Today we looked at what forces can do. We did a couple of experiments with Play-Doh and cars to see who we could change the shape and speed of the items. We have about 3 more weeks of this unit, about a week to two weeks of lessons and a week to a week and a half of the summative. More information to come in the following weeks!

Have a great night!

Mrs. Hocevar J

Enjoying our time in the library!
