Literacy
We add three more literary devices to our list:

Please complete your illustration of onomatopoeia (coloured) and have your personification sentence ready to copy for tomorrow. Remember, your character must be part of your sentence.

Example: While Miss Emily was trudging through the snow after tobogganing, the wind began to how. 

Other examples:

When you are answering open or APE questions, it's important that you find proof in the novel to support your opinion. There are so many profound statements that Stella and Ivan say in the novel. It's a chance for you to think deeply and with an open heart.

Math

Today we marked the second booklet. Your test tomorrow is on units of length. Make sure you know the metric number line and know how to change from one unit to another. Many of the questions will be application questions. Check the weekend post for examples. Perimeter will be assessed next week. 

Social Studies

What are the main resources in the Arctic? What are the primary industries that match with these natural resources?

Tomorrow you will complete your chart identifying the different resources, primary industries, jobs and products made from these natural resources.

Over the next few days, students will staying inside for one recess to determine if they have enough time to complete their brochures on the computer. My feeling is about half the class will not be able to finish on the computer and that's okay. You will complete a hand written brochure that will look similar to the other brochures. You will be responsible for finding pictures to glue onto your brochure. If your brochure is saved on the OneDrive, you are able to work on it at home.

At the end of the day there were three math tests on the back table. They have vanished. I know there were some kind students cleaning up the back table. If you saw them could you let me know? I will say a prayer to St. Anthony.
