Tuesday March 29th

It has been a very busy week so far in Grade 5! 
Here a few quick updates and reminders:
Pizza money is due tomorrow


-Language-  students are completing their first assignment for procedural writing. Students have the success criteria in their notebook. I will also post it on here. The assignment is to write about how to play a game. The example that we wrote together in class was How to Play Crazy Eights. We are also continuing with our reading about Conservation of Energy. We have been focusing on the reading strategy of Questioning. Please discuss at home how important it is to question what we read to fully understand it.


-Math- Students should have brought home their Volume sheets over the weekend. Some students needed to do corrections and they are bringing those home with them tonight.
Today we looked at the relationship between Volume and Capacity. We found the volume of 3D objects in class by using water displacement. Ask your child to tell you all about it! Their homework was JUMP p.236
