Dear amazing families,
This week:
* We started practicing a dance with Mr. Marta's class. When we have learned the whole dance and are really good at it we will perform it at an assembly. We will let you know the date when we know it, so you can come watch if you want. The dance is to the song "Can't Stop the Feeling".
* In math, we started learning about multiplication. In multiplication there are "groups of". For example if you have 5 ice cream cones with 6 scoops each... that is 5 groups of 6... or 5X6 which equals 30.
* In gym (besides dancing) we also played: Zombie Tag, practiced dribbling and shooting the basketball, played Octopus, played Pirate Battle, and played Angry Cats.
* This week in Sporcle we named 88/197 countries. That is our best score yet!
* In science we are learning about matter and the properties of matter. Some of the properties of matter are: if it is' magnetic, the colour, the texture, the size, the shape, if it is soft or hard, and if it is opaque (not see through), translucent (sort of see through) or transparent (see through).
* We learned a very cool word today called triskaidekaphobia. It means when you are afraid of the number 13. The word has 17 letters!
* This week we got a postcard from Germany. The postcard was in German, but we translated it. We also got a postcard from Italy. It was from E.R.'s aunt and uncle. AND we got a postcard from Jordan.
* In music we listened to a song called "Canada in my Pocket". Then we made pockets. We are going to put paper money in the pockets.
* In STEM we used Lego. We made creations with one colour. When we showed it to Miss Bell then we could make something else that didn't have to be one colour.
We hope you have a terrific weekend!
From,
Mrs. Marta's special, creative, talented, sweet, artistic, kind, cool, awesome, smart, hard-working, silly and fabulous students
