Poetry: we will be recording your poems written from the perspective of the octopus into your Voki throughout this week.  Rehearse your poem aloud focussing on pacing and tone of voice. 

Math: MMS: Patterns & Input/Output Machines, p. 386, # 3 - 6.  Visit the virtual manipulatives, click on manipulatives and scroll to colour tiles to create any tile patterns that would support your math thinking.

Summary: each student has received a hardcopy of an article that they are to read, highlight relevant ideas and gist words for tomorrow.  Students will be working in groups to complete a summary graphic organizer within a wiki in-class and at-home over the next 2 days.  Click on the link below for your group summary task:
