Quote of the Day - Bringing a little inspiration to your day!
Take a look at what we accomplished today!
Inquiry into Math:
The majority of the class completed their good copy of their speech over the weekend. Today, they spent part of their morning practicing so that they could memorize their speech. We went over a few helpful tips to remember when trying to memorize their speech:
The grade 4 in class competition will be held February 4th/5th.
The Annual Oral Competition for grades 4 - 8 will be held on Friday, February 7th. All speeches need to be memorized and should be within 3 - 5 minutes.
Unit of Inquiry:
Today the began working on their summatives for their unit: Who we are. Students were given their summative packages as a point of reference as they work their way through their assignment. Just a friendly reminder that all summative materials are to be provided by the students.
Each group has chosen two religions that they have either learned about during our unit, or religions that they would like to learn about to complete a comparison assignment. They will discover the similarities and differences between their chosen religions and present their findings to the class via a story book, brochure or news report/interview.
Here are the groups:
Raiyan & Vaibhv - Hinduism + Islam
Ali & Meekaal - Judaism + Islam
Bilal & Lennard - Taoism + Islam
Alexa & Charlotte - Christianity + Judaism
Aashrith & Jacob - Taoism + Hinduism
Julia & Isabella - Christianity + Native Spirituality
Honor & Emily - Hinduism + Catholicism
Neel & Abdul - Islam + Sikhism
As we wrap up our unit and begin to think about our next unit, the Grade 4 Teaching Team have sent home the field trip information for our next unit. Please ensure that you read the entire package thoroughly and return the form and money by the required day.
