HANDWRITING
The class copied the following riddle, answered it and wrote out today's date.
"Why did the vampire bite the computer?"

FRENCH
The students practiced saying, hearing, and writing the names of the insects that they are using in this unit.

MATH
The students used Cuisinaire rods, which are different coloured rods with each colour being a different length. They compared one colour to another and made fractions for the different lengths.

For example 1 white rod is 1/10 (one tenth) of an orange rod.

SCIENCE
We read a book on BookFlix about different kids of worms and read the book "Diary of a Worm." We discussed how worms create tunnels that help the soil have more air, eat items in the soil to add to its richness, and need to come to the surface when it rains.


SHOW & SHARE
We saw track and field ribbons and heard about the student's favourite and least favourite events. We all wrote a message for Riley and Miss Riddell posted them to the "Rallying for Riley" page on Facebook. We also started "Get Well" cards for Mr. Middleton who has been away all week.

*Have a great long weekend!
*The answer to today's riddle is: "He wanted to get on the Inter'neck'.
