Ms. Hope and
Ms. Carm hosted an autism information session for Grade 3 – 6 students directly
after this morning’s assembly. This information was very beneficial in helping
us to better understand autism.
Theta hosted
today’s spirit day house game. Representatives from houses battled each other
in a game of stomp the balloon. The winners were identical to yesterday. Well
done to Zeta for taking first place, Kappa for second place, and Theta for
third place.
In math,
students worked on their fractions and percents unit test.
We then
worked on our flight summative task. Students that hadn’t already completed
their procedure, worked to complete this. They then prepared their data charts
and built and prepared all their planes. At the end of the day we went outside
to test our planes as the auditorium was not available for us to use. It was
very cold and windy making this a difficult and uncomfortable task. We came in
early and enjoyed reading Roald Dahl’s ‘The Twits’ together. We will try get
the testing done when we return from the tomorrow’s soccer trip.
Earlier
today, students who were ready for testing ahead of time worked on the paper
basket for their hot air balloon. Students are asked to get as far as they can
independently at home and to return their baskets to school tomorrow.
This week is
Spirit Week. Students are asked to come dressed in casual clothes for the
soccer trip or something unusual for Whacky Wednesday.
Ms.
Roe-Etter will be presenting an information session on the Diploma Programme
(DP), this Thursday, March 8th at 7 pm.
