Newsletter November 19th - 22nd

Dear parents,
Thank you very much for giving a chance to students enjoy 90 minutes at Spocha amusement center. I am sure kids enjoyed playing games, roller skating and ice-cream. We strengthened our class spirit and friendship for sure. I could see all class playing together and having fun.
Here are the activities we had during the week.
UoI:
Our unit is almost over. We are still focusing on the last line of inquiry "Global Imbalances and Opportunities". We watched a video about food waste in America and how it can be solved. It is interesting to read student's responses and comments on this issue. One of the student's comment was to make a box for paper, paper trash and re-usable paper. It was an awesome idea. Now, I am planning to organize this next wee.
Summative assessment documents, rubrics and forms have been already shared with students. I will be checking my inbox all weekend. Due date is Sunday, November 24th, 21:00
Math:
We started a new topic. Triangles and classification according to side length and interior angles. Students measured, cut, glued given triangles and tried to come up with their own classification. Everyone came up with the same groups of triangles. The names reflected how the grouping was accomplished. Next week we will continue to deepen our knowledge about triangles.
Art:
We were focusing on Science week experiments and the students were eager to show what they have done. However, on Monday, food coloring substance was spilled and no one wanted to admit it. Students were given a choice to accept or don't have a chance to work on experiment. After long discussion, all experiments were cancelled. On Thursday, we worked on displays only.



















Thank you very much!
