Wholly doodle. It's been a while since my last post. so here's the scoop lately.
Today, we launched our social studies projects. The link is the outline document. students can choose from a number of ways to show their understanding of Copper Inuit culture. For me, this is the first time I have done a big differentiated project with a class, so it won't just be the students learning!
In Math, we've been multiplying for a while, but the big stumbling block for students lately, has been 2x2 digit multiplication. Please take the time to work with your kids on the homework assigned this week, as your one-on-one guidance will help greatly. Most students are using the LATTICE method to solve 2x2 digit problems, and for most of you parents, this is a new thing, so here is an image that might help.
Drumming! we are drumming this week. we're learning a lot about rythm, dance, and music. if you want to see how much we've learned, come on down on Wednesday morning at 8:50 to see our wrap-up performances!
Threat assessment: We have the green-light from the RCMP and the school board to return to business as usual. I think the whole event served as a good teachable moment for students. It provided the opportunity to learn about some social issues as well as an opportunity to review some standards such as stranger-danger and lockdown procedures.
That's all for now folks!
I'll try to be more consistent with my posts from here-on out.
