On Tuesday we read "Walking The Road to Freedom" and played soccer baseball instead of going to the computer lab.
On Wednesday we went to the ROM. IT was FANTASTIC. The bus ride was about two hours both ways.
On Thursday we learned how to do long dividing and for art we started making cool Egyptain armor and Egyptian wigs.
Today we are going to watch a movie about how they discovered King Tut.We think it will be magnificent...It was magnificent!!!

This week's new stuff!
This week was very exciting. We had Field Day (it was very tiring). We had a winning team which was team #3, yellow they got gold, #10, brown got silver and the winner of the bronze medal was team # 1,white. We also had a math test on measurements and we hope you all did well. In math this week we're learning how to multiply bigger numbers. Next week Wednesday we are going to the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) with grades 5/6 we're all excited : Please note that kids are allowed to take their cameras with them and need to pay $7.00 each. It's going to be a blast :). Also note that we are going to the ROM, not Rome. They are very different. Next week we'll be focusing on Egypt (the ancient part) and if you would like to tell us something that you know about it you are welcome to try.
Thank You!

Weekly Summary May 10-14
This week grade we learned the 10 Commandments. It's not like we didn't know them before but they are very, very important. We also finished unit 9 in math.
A lot of kids did high jump and got to about 85cm. We are very very close to getting 10 people in the class getting a first standard in the 800.
1 week from now (May 26) our class is going on a field trip to the ROM for a end year class trip. We will be focused on the Egypt exhibit.
As you all know track and field is coming up. Please train your kids on high jump, triple jump, 800m, standing long jump, running long jump, and ball throw.
In Social Studies we have gone to the Ontario Legislature with bills our groups came up with. It's quite fun.
We also did fun fractured fairy tales.
Well, there's a small summary by Michael and Shannon.

What We Did This Week
This week we started a new reading unit. We also learned how Toronto lives. We liked making Fairy-Tales into Fractured-Fairy-Tales. Surprisingly everyone can get 3rd standard(75cm) in high jump with Mr.Kingma. On Wednesday we had an oral French quiz and everyone did pretty well! We are learning how to use 1cm squared units in math. In the computer lab we each did at least a one page slide show on OPEN OFFICE. We had a lot of fun practicing Field day with our field day teams. We also started a system that if you tip on your chair you have to do 5 push ups.
We had a FANTASTIC week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What's Coming Up May 3 - 7
Happy May!
This week we will be starting a Fractured Fairy Tale project. The students will write and edit their own mixed up story. It should be fun.
We are beginning a new unit in Literature. This unit is about our hopes, wishes and prayers. Many of the stories will deal with the Underground Railroad. In Bible class we are going to learn about the 10 Commandments. Thatʼs the memory work for the week too.
In Math we will be focusing on perimeter.
We will have a French quiz on Wednesday. It is an oral quiz. The students will have to say sentences with the correct pronouns with the right verbs. I am sending home a study sheet as well as posting the vocab on the blog.
Speaking of the blog, I will no longer be the only author! Last week Angela and Jordan wrote the Friday update. I will find two new students for this week.
