Lost Thursday

Evening all, late post again but it was a crazy day today...and we had a birthday dinner tonight so it is, what it is.  I wish all of you staying home a happy Eid and long weekend, we'll all miss you tomorrow.

Today in math we took up, some of the math questions we did yesterday.  We talked about the zero principle with the 7s again.  Then the 7s started working on word problems and adding and subtracting positive and negative numbers.  The 8s started working with multiplication models and used number lines and counters to represent multiplication problems.  Math homework is below on the picture.

For language, we watched a couple of episodes of the television show "Lost".  We talked about some of the characters that we were introduced to, and talked about how they were presented to us as the audience.  We will continue to discuss this tomorrow and there will be writing attached to watching these episodes (stop complaining J.H!!), but what I liked today was that most of you were able to infer some of what was going on by reading the scene and making excellent predictions based on text to: self, text & world predictions.

After lunch we had computers, and some of you used this time to do some extra work.  Then you had gym with Mr. Corby.

We ended the day as planned with some more "Lost" so that we all weren't left hanging with suspense and we'll maybe watch some more at a later date...behaviour and awesomeness pending!

On a much lighter note, I took Lucy to get her nails done as a belated birthday gift.  She is so serious about it.  Please enjoy the photos below! Love to all, see ya' tomorrow! Bring trip forms, $3.00, Awesome rough drafts and math homework! Keep working on SOTM!
