Terry Fox Run - Sept. 24th
Parent Conferences - Sept. 24th and 25th
Picture Day - Sept. 29th
Today in math, we reviewed two different algorithms for addition. First we added left to right and then we tried the same equation right to left. We will review many strategies until students find one that is efficient and accurate.
Here is a video that compares the two methods if you would like to try it at home.

We are also exploring the new and challenging concept of metaphor. Today's quote was "Aim for the moon, and even if you miss you will land amongst the stars". Are we actually talking about the moon? What does this quote really trying to tell us? We also looked at the work of Vladimir Kush. What is the artist trying to tell us in these pictures? What is his message? We are trying to think as artists as we explore water colour paint medium.
Hope this gives you some interesting dinner table conversation!

Mrs. Maronese
