We started with All Team Meeting and discussed our Ottawa trip at length. Ms. Lamb showed some pictures from two years ago.
It is important that all of us or almost all of us attend the trip. This makes it affordable and able to be used as part of our Canada studies unit. If for some reason, a student cannot attend the trip, we need to hear from a parent as soon as possible. Thanks for your help with this.
The trip is exciting and a wonderful learning experience. I have been twice and can tell you it is safe, easy and character building. I don't know anyone who went that didn't love it. One year we even missed a rain day off from school and we still didn't mind.
We continue our brief study of teen activists to get us ready for our independent research. Students are reading articles from a text set provided by me. Students are to try to read all of the articles on their chosen person and take notes. Tomorrow we begin writing in class.
Tonight's homework:
LA: Continue reading widely on your teen activist and take notes in your journal. Work for at least 20 minutes
Read novel 20-30 minutes
Math: Page 21-22 #33 and #35 do first then do as much as you can 33-44. Quiz tomorrow on adding and subtracting fractions
$40 deposit for Ottawa due tomorrow.
