Week of June 19th to June 23rd

 Hello All,

This week, we have been wrapping up our studies, preparing to finish things off going into more of an activity week next week for the last week! In math, we have been playing the math game prodigy, which the students have been enjoying a lot this year, to practice their math skills in areas such as probability, multiplication, division and rounding. In social and science, we have been exploring games and articles from the website https://gradefive.mrpolsky.com/. This site is great to further engage students in multiple curricula. Lastly, in ELA we have been working on our myth writing, finishing our rough copies this week, with good copy posters due early next week. I hope you all have a great weekend!

Hello again everyone! This week was a busy week, but we are progressing really well! In math, we have covered fractions and percents, and will be moving into review next week before a small quiz! After this, we will be moving on to statistics and probability! In science, we have started our classroom chemistry unit, and the students have had a blast with their solutions and mixtures! In social, we tried working with history scripts, and it was a lot of fun from what they had said! I always want to make subjects as fun and engaging as I can. Lastly, in ELA we have been working hard at our story writing, breaking down all parts of the story before writing and editing our stories in a couple weeks! I hope you all have a lovely weekend :). -Mr. Junaid

A show what you know will be given in routine again next week, as well as some reading assessments for the students! We are continuing to focus on division, practicing the strategies such as grouping, arrays, repeated subtraction and halving. The students are feeling more and more confident as we go on. We continued our poetry unit, we students beginning to design their own poems through the acrostic, and cinquain style. We also continued with our circuits unit in science, looking at online circuit building resources while we are getting our new circuit equipment in. Lastly, the students continued with their celebrating Canadian black history month. The students are presenting a biography on a figure of their choice, and they can do this through Minecraft world building, posters, websites, books, etc.  As seen in the photos, we also had some time to explore student passions, with on...

 Hello All! This week, we have been wrapping up our story good copies, and will be moving onto mythology and other fiction topics in the next coming weeks before the year ends! We are far into our wetlands adventures in science, and the students have been doing well researching wetlands animals. In math, we are working on our estimation project, which is allowing the students to go on hypothetical shopping sprees, and then adding up their totals and using estimation strategies to calculate which will be the closest to the actual total. Lastly, in social studies, we are finishing our time capsule project, along with our social studies scripts, and are excited for our gallery walk coming soon! Have a great weekend everyone!
