Monday September 26th 2016

Hello,

Here is what we did today!

UOI/Language: Today we worked on kung-fu punctuation! It is a fun way to remember the different types of punctuation! Take a look at what we did! You can test your children tonight to see if they remember what they are!


Spelling: We started the new set of words. Test is on Friday!
Daily Five: We did our daily rotation.

French: Please see Mme. Stella's blog for more information.

Lunch/Recess

UOI: Today we did our table setting quiz! They worked very hard and tried their best.
Math: Today we started working on rounding! This was a tricky topic so we started at the basics. We started with the rule:

5 or higher we round UP
4 or lower we round DOWN

When rounding to the nearest ten you look at the ONES number. The TENS column will tell you which number to go up or down to.

When rounding to the nearest hundred you look at the TENS number. The HUNDREDS column will tell you which number to go up or down to.

We rounded to the nearest ten and rounded to the nearest 100. Next we practiced estimating an addition and subtraction question and then rounding the answer. They did well but we are going to do more work on it tomorrow.


Lunch/Recess

We continued working on math. When they finished they practiced rounding in groups using whiteboards.

Gym: Please see Mr. H's blog for more information.

Have a good night!

Miss. Ross
