This week was marvelous!

In gym, we practiced some hockey drills, and played a game as a class. 

In science, we watched a Bill Nye video about lights and shadows, and made a concept map.

In math we learned the "Breaking it Down" strategy in addition. We  also played a new math race game afterwards to practice our skills. 

In social studies, we looked and observed artifacts from the Glenbow museum. These artifacts would have been similar to those used by David Thompson, Charlotte Small, the Voyageurs, and the Niitsitapi people. 

Our spelling pattern this week is:

When a short-vowel word ends in a single consonant, the consonant is usually doubled before adding an ending that begins with a vowel. In words with 2 or more syllables, the final consonant is usually doubled if the last syllable has a short vowel followed by a single consonant. 

Ex: begin + ing = beginning
      drop + ed = dropped
      jog + er = jogger

beginning 

humming 

dropped 

sitting 

slipping 

joggers 

grabbing 

bobbing 

tripped 

padded 

skimming 

scrubbing 

winners 

outfitted 

wrapped 

clapping 

dragging 

chatting 

quitter 

trimmer

Reminders:

• Our field trip to the Glenbow is next Tuesday. Make sure you bring a cold sack lunch to eat onsite. 

Have a great weekend!
