Today in room 16:

We started our morning with our class meeting and appreciation circle. We had a chance to share about our weekends, a goal for the week and what we would like to learn about.

Next we moved into math and learned about reflex angles and quadrilaterals.

After math we had snack and finally went outside for recess!

Next I gave the students a chunk of time to write about their space art. The descriptions needed to describe What they were, What they are made of, when were they discovered/by whom, and where they are found.

I then had an hour to introduce the students to story writing. We started by focusing on beginnings. Our beginnings must introduce a character, setting and some exciting conflict to hook the reader. 

In the afternoon we had a conversation about how some students have been showing rude or disrespectful behaviour today. We talked about why this might be and did a mini activity to come to terms with why we might be upset.

We finished our day by exploring the textbook and learning about the government structure of local governments.

Have a great day everyone!
