Monday Memo: Week of Oct 19-23

Language: This week, the Hansel and Gretel Storyboards are due on Wednesday. No more class time will be given to work on them. They should be finished at home.

Students are starting their Scary Story - Narrative Writing. We are listening to creepy stories in class to get ideas about how to create suspense and keep the reader engaged. This week, we are brainstorming ideas and beginning a rough draft. Students have a copy of the Google Slides brainstorming to follow in their Language folders online.

Autobiographies will be marked and handed back this week.

Grammar: We are reviewing quotations, because we will be inputting dialogue into our narratives.

Math: We are having a Place Value quiz on Monday. Then, we will be moving onto Addition and Subtraction of whole numbers this week. Grade 5s will look addition and subtraction of whole numbers that add up to no more than 100 000, whereas Grade 6s will look at numbers up to 1 000 000.

Science: Grade 5s are continuing the Human Organ System. They are currently studying digestion. Grade 6s are continuing Biodiversity and starting a research project on a species.
