MATH

We missed math today due to our UOI summative and oral presentations. We will pick it up tomorrow.  This will be a short unit with only 3-4 lessons and we will do an ‘art’ project as our unit test, which will most likely happen on Wednesday, March 2.

LANGUAGE

Today was our Oral Presentation Day. A huge congratulations to Tomas (1^st), Laryssa (2^nd) and Kamaljeet (3^rd) for representing the grade 4’s. I am very proud and you all did a fantastic job. You are excellent risk-takers!

UOI

Today we continued working on our maps. For this summative, students will be working in groups to create a map of an urban and rural community. We will be looking for things such as roads, hospitals, stores, bank, a dump (located outside of the city), houses, highways, and as we move out to the country we should see more green land, houses spread apart, farms, etc. This summative will be due Wednesday, March 2, as our CN Tower trip is on Thursday and then Friday is the last day of school before March Break. I have attached a picture of the rubric and an example of what I am looking for.

Have a wonderful night! Safe travels tonight!

Mrs. Hocevar J

Great job Tomas, Laryssa, and Kamaljeet!
