September 13th



With the Terry Fox run a few weeks away, inspirational people was the theme in Language Arts. The AM group was asked to research an inspirational person and create a short presentation on the impact that person had on others. They will be working on this for the majority of the week during Language blocks.

In Math, the class has begun their unit on Whole Numbers, specifically, revisiting Place Value. In grade 6, students are introduced to numbers in the millions and further expand on the skills they encompassed in previous grades.

This week, the PM group began the Electricity unit in Science. They were given some materials and instructed to get their light bulb to turn on. Once they got their light bulb to turn on, they were asked to find some conducting materials in the class that they could add to their circuits, and continue the flow of electricity to their bulb. Needless to say, the students got very creative in their efforts and learned some important information about electricity along the way. They will continue to explore more about electricity in the coming days
