Humanities:

This week students will complete their provincial government presentations and they will complete a group assessment.  We will also begin to examine how to write effective news articles and to demonstrate their understanding, students will write a news article about their experience at Winter Camp. A few of these articles will be chosen for The Spectrum. 

Thanks again to all of the parents who volunteered for Winter Camp. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Math/Science:
Explorer project presentations will wrap up early this week. The rubric for these projects should come home mid-week. Please sign and return these assessments.
In science we are hoping to wrap up the Sky Science unit in the coming weeks and start on Evidence and Investigation prior to the spring break. 
This week in math we will be focusing on fractions. Students will be starting with manipulatives/tiles and moving towards models and drawing before using fractions in equations. When are able to demonstrate there understanding with fractions we will tackle some larger problems involving fraction operations.
