Notice:
Please bring in Granola bars for our School service project.
Our class brought in the second most sales of the 'Entertainment' booklet so on Friday the parent group is giving our class a bag of chips each for our effort. The first place winners, div 14 won the pizza party.
We began the day finishing our mini books, and starting a new mini book; an ABC book of winter, first nations or explorers. This mini-book like last weeks is being done on the computer so I have to give the students time at school and not dempnd on it being homework.
After recess we read for half an hour, and as we had done a double period of math computation period yesterday we worked on mathimatical thinking with another sudoku lesson. The students were introduced bo 6x6 puzzles, the next step up from the 4x4 sudoku puzzles we have been doing.
After lunch we had a p.e. period with a rousing game of bench ball. After p.e. we returned to the class and watched the last part of the movie 'Spirit' that we started yesterday. We are studying different modes of transportation of the First Nations peoples. This how the horse changed the way plains First nations peoples moved, traveled, hunted and protected their nations. The movie 'Spirit' is a story told from the perspective of a wild Mustang about the West. The taming of the horse is a metaphor for the taming of the West, the First Nations, the buffalo etc.
