Happy last Monday of the school year!!!
Today we began our day with the last spelling test! Ask me how many words I spelled correctly. No new words this year but please have me practice spelling test words this summer to keep my skills fresh!
Then we finished typing our habitat paragraphs! Tomorrow we will present our habitats and our writing. When we finished writing we got some free time on the computers to use mathletics, coding or research a new animal.
Next we continued designing our board games. Ask me what my group and I completed on our board game today.
After recess we had snack and read more of "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing". Ask me who the main characters in the story are and what is happening so far.
We folded some tricky paper airplanes using youtube videos as a guide. Ask me how the folding process went. Was I frustrated or did I try my best and persevere?
Then we flew our paper airplanes and measured the distance. Ask me how many centimeters mine flew! How many meters?
After lunch Miss Tennis gave us "a grade 4 spelling test". This test was actually a prank made up of words that aren't real! There was some panic at first and a lot of confusion! At the end of the test Miss Tennis told us it was a prank and we all had a good laugh. Ask me what words we had to spell.Ask me how I felt about the spelling test prank haha!
Then we learned more about India and their flag. Ask me what the colours on the flag mean.
We had outdoor gym and tried out Mr. MacKenzie's students' frisbee golf game! Ask me how many holes my group and I completed. Who won?!
We ended the day collaborating with our groups to complete our Readers' Theatre scripts. Ask me how much we have left before we are done.
