We Will Remember!

Hi Class,

What a moving Remembrance Day Assemby Ms. Barry and the Grade 5 Class put on for the whole school today. I know it left us all with so much to think about and be thankful for......

We WILL Remember!!!

In terms of our own Grade 6 updates...HERE THEY ARE:

1) MATH - The Measurement Test is Monday and we spent the beginning of this week converting metric units. Then, we puzzled around with some problems involving metric conversion. So, this weekend be sure to review the skill of converting metric units and, using PICTURES, NUMBERS AND WORDS, as thoroughly as you can complete those problems - most of them are problems from past Grade 6 EQAOs.

2) MATH - You've also been given back the ROUNDING/ESTIMATING problem from your Number Sense & Numeration Test with an extra blank copy of the PROBLEM SOLVING MODEL, which is really a Graphic Organizer to help you show all your work using PICTURES, NUMBERS & WORDS. In addition, you have a copy of the EQAO Problem I based the question on showing samples of a Level 1, 2, 3, & 4 from Grade 6 students just like you. Be sure to look over the different student samples to see what each level looks like or includes. Think about the differences between the levels. Then, look at the Test problem again and using the PROBLEM SOLVING MODEL solve the problem or improve your response or try it again.

3) SCIENCE - Make sure your NOTEBOOKS are in good order and study for the SCIENCE TEST on Wednesday.

4) ENGLISH - As always, WEDNESDAY is SPELLING DAY! Also, some of you took home some of the Workshop Activities, but you will have inclass time on Monday and Tuesday.

5) FRENCH - Looks like you have some French homework too. AVOIR Sheet and Test on Monday.

TESTS, TESTS, TESTS...It must be REPORT CARD TIME!!

Have a good weekend!! See you Monday!!

Mrs. A.
