  3. Math homework: Algebra basics: BEDMAS and Solving Equations worksheet if not complete, and page 1 and 2 of Order of Operations practice (most finished during lesson).
Today flew by! We practiced and reviewed BEDMAS while others moved onto harder solving for 'x' equations.

Afterwards we lumbered into learning and discovering more about the layers and age of trees.  Students had to research specific effects that change tree growth as well as determine the age of real-life tree cores! 

During LA we continued with reader's theater.   The students planned out props, actions, and worked really hard are giving their own group constructive feedback!  Friday will be peer assessment before Monday's big show!

In the afternoon the grade 6s were excellent during division I's Christmas concert rehearsal.  If you are attending tonight you are in for a real treat!

We hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!
