Sports Day Monday

Today we continued our animal research. Students will be given 1-2 more periods to gather their information before creating a poster or booklet to present it to the class. Please try and do some research over the weekend if you are feeling behind.

In math today we continued to work with fractions. We worked on representing fractions as parts of a whole. We were given a fraction and had to create a drawing to match it. It is important to remember that the numerator tells us how many pieces we are looking at and the denominator tells us how many pieces in total we have. We also practiced writing out fractions based on drawings.

This afternoon we started learning about the country of Ukraine. We will be doing our Daily 5 activities based around information on Ukraine. Today we had groups working on: mapping, comparing the land of Ukraine to Peru, using a textbook, flags and symbols of the country and looking at the climate. We will continue to study Ukraine for the next week or so.

On Monday May 29th from 10:45 - 11:30 Beddington Heights would like to celebrate Karon Hayes contributions to our school. Come to the school gym to celebrate as students, teachers and parents gather together to say thank you.

As of now, Sports Day is on Monday afternoon. Please make sure that you dress appropriately for the Beach Day theme and that your clothing choices adhere to the school handbook. If students would like to wear sunscreen they need to apply it themselves or before arriving at school.
