Happy Thursday!
Today we finished our read aloud novel Inside Out & Back Again, which is a story of a family forced to flee their home and country during the Vietnam war. The novel provided students with a first-hand account of a refugee’s struggle in a new land, and it offered the students insight on the value of resilience and perseverance.
In math students explored rectangles with an equal area. Students were required to determine all the possible rectangle configurations with a given squared value. They then calculated the perimeter of their rectangles to compare the different sums.
Just as a reminder, students are still gathering items for the Calgary Drop-In Centre. Possible donation items may include:
- razors for shaving
- shampoo
- tums
- cough drops
- travel sized band aids
- vitamins
- small Advil packets
- travel mugs
- water bottles
- toothpaste & toothbrushes
- $2 to $5 gift cards
