Digital Citizenship and Recursive Patterns

In religion today we finished the first of five lessons about digital citizenship. We learned today about what a responsible citizen is and students write or drew an image to depict their understanding. This unit is an excellent companion to our media literacy curriculum as well. Afterwards we continued to work on our Letters to our Future Self, which hopefully will be completed by Friday.

Today in math we learned about how to determine patterns which have two steps for each term. Please see the link below to view a video that shows how I explained it to the class. Please review this with your child to see if they understand.

Two Step Patterns

In Science, we are beginning our first investigation. For the grade 6's, I have them doing some research to find out what Biodiversity means, and why it is important. The grade 5's are trying to determine the major systems of the human body. We will continue this tomorrow and hopefully present our findings next week. In Health we have begun to learn about healthy eating habits. We will be continuing to learn about how to eat in a healthy manner using the Canada Food Guide to assist us.
