We did our maker challenge this week in Science. We made cars that move without having to be pushed. We researched how to make either an elastic car or a balloon car. We will be testing our creations on Monday!
We finally finished the Hobbit! What an adventure Bilbo went on! Ask me what happened in the book!
Speaking of books... we had to start organizing our classroom library and our leveled books. It was a huge job and we want to give a big thank you to our friends who stayed in a couple recesses to help us organize!
In gym we played Lady GaGa ball again. If you didn't want to play this game you could use the hula hoops or a skipping rope.
It was the Grade 6's farewell assembly this week. We were invited and got to watch all the grade 6's cross the stage. The grade 5's also sang "See You Again" it was very touching!
Room 8 got to read outside this week and play on the playground when Room 7 was in music (don't worry Room 7 we will go outside on Monday!) :)
Even Miss Klem joined in on the fun!
In Social we learned about confederation and Alberta's French heritage. Last week on June 14 the Franco-Albertan flag became an official emblem of Alberta. Pretty cool that this happened the same year Canada turns 150!
In Math we started to learn about decimals. We even got some homework this week as extra practice. We had to add and subtract decimals. This was good practice for us to remember our strategies for addition and subtraction. We played a game called "Guess the Decimal!" where we worked with a partner and we had to draw decimals in pictures and our partner had to figure out what the decimal was.
Next week is our last week of school! We are done on Wednesday June 28. It is a half day.
Until next time,
Love,
Room 7 & 8
