This morning we started with journals. Today we focused on trying to put periods and capital letters in our writing. Some of us find it a bit tricky to decide exactly where the periods should go. We learned that the period belongs at the end of a complete idea and we practiced doing this with a journal entry that Ms. Boyer wrote about her weekend. We also made sure to start new sentences with a capital letter.
This morning we also read a fun story called Mother Bruce. It was a funny story of mistaken identity where a bear named Bruce gets mistaken for a mother goose.
In math we watched a shapes test video and tried to say the names of all the shapes faster than the video. Here it is in case you want to practice at home:
This afternoon we started working on our last flag for our flags project. This flag is about being a good citizen that cares for our places. We used greens and yellows for these flags because those colours make sense for ideas that will be about caring for nature.
Today we had a visit from our Grade 6 friends who are helping to organize the Terry Fox Run. They reminded us that they Terry Fox Run is on Friday and they gave us a special piggy bank so that we can collect money for our Terry Fox Fundraiser. We are invited to bring in money all week to help fund cancer research.
