Today in room 16:
We started out our morning with a visual shapes puzzle to get our math minds in gear. 
This image is not the one we did but it is a very similar concept.
We then did the MIPI or Math intervention program instrument as a way to measure the students understanding of grade 5 concepts. This carried us to recess, then snack and then finally back inside to mark it.
After putting up the remainder of our name tags for our DL boards and coat hooks the students had their first music class with Mr Weins.
We then had gym outside on the compound playing different compound games.
The last chunk of our morning we learned about the circle of courage. The Circle of Courage is based in four universal growth needs of all children. This circle helps students to understand the importance of generosity, belonging, mastery and independence. These four key principles are essential for students as they grow and learn how to become young adults.
After lunch, recess and mindfulness we moved into creating our own unique handprints that would encircle the circle of courage. We as a class will work towards always showing and supporting others with follows the values in the circle of courage.
We finished our day by checking off a few house keeping items such as finishing work from the day, making Zones of Regulation posters, KWL poster for our trees and forests questions and knowledge, and cutting out leaves for our upcoming leaf exploration unit.
Have a Truly Terrific Thursday everyone!
Mr Lancee
