Our day...

Today we spent our time reading Genesis 5, working hard on our math reviews, and also investigating third class levers.

Tomorrow we will be painting our murals, as well as doing a practice math test. The practice math test will be a great way for the students to study and also to know what they need to still review. The actual test on Thursday will be very similar to the practice test in terms of format, but the numbers will be changed so I can accurately test their knowledge of the concepts they have learned over the last few weeks.

Just a reminder- mural painting is MESSY! Please help your child remember to choose their clothing accordingly... Sunday best may not hold up to acrylic paint.

Please check the HOMEWORK PAGE for important updates and due dates!

Friday, November 21

We had a great time finishing up our First Peoples research and sketching our murals! We will be painting our murals next Wednesday.

Have a good weekend!
