Good morning,

 

This is a reminder that the Annual McM Community Potluck is on today from 6-8pm.  Bring your tasty treats/dishes and reacquaint yourselves with your McM Community friends and get to know new members as well. Do not miss out on this great opportunity to meet you children's friends and classmates.

 

Please remember that all dishes MUST be NUT-FREE.

 

We look forward to seeing everyone there!!

 

Have a fantastic day!!

Thank you for sharing your math thinking cooperatively in your groups.

Math: Practice multiplication using the online math manipulatives using numbers cubes: select one die of each colour.  Click the hand to roll and multiply the numbers.

Voicethread:  Thank you for completing this task.  Tonight, listen to the responses shared by other students in voicethread and reflect on the similarities/differences in issues that concern others in the classroom.

Parent/Teacher Interviews: please connect with your child regarding your time for the Progress Report parent/teacher interviews.  Progress Reports will be sent home tomorrow afternoon  :o)

INDOOR SHOES: as the weather is wet and the playground is muddy, students need to have indoors shoes to wear in the school.  At the end of the day, the shoes can be placed on their desks or in their lockers.

Math: Entrance Pass for tomorrow morning deconstruct the word problem (measurement focussing on area and unit conversions) and show your math thinking using numbers (formulas) and diagrams

Voicethread:  DUE tomorrow: This interactive program allows you to collaborate and communicate to facilitate and guide your learning as a student community.  Accept your invitation in your gmail account and sign into voicethread.  

Share your response within one of the recording forums (type it, record it or video capture it):
