February 6, 2018- Be a multiplication ninja!

Agenda:

• Read 20 min
• Practice your spelling words, spelling test this Friday 
• Yoga residency all this week- wear clothes you can do yoga in
• Winter walk day tomorrow- dress up to take a walk outside
• Bring in a rock from home that is no bigger than your fist to create a pet rock tomorrow

The Top Three Things We Learned and Did Today:

• In music, we started making a foley (skit).  One to two actors needed to create a scene while the other members of our group made music for the scene.  We were also shown a part from a movie where foley artists were playing louder to make the sound effects.
• In math, we had to practice our multiplication skills, some of us worked on our basic facts while others were practicing their cross multiplication strategy.
• In social studies, we first learned how we are going to be multiplication ninjas.  Then we looked at pictures of Tunisia so that we could make our anthropologist pictures more realistic and less "Canadian."  Then we were given time to work on them.

What do we have to do next?

We have to practice our multiplication tables (3's- 1 times; 4's- 6 times) so that we can do 20 questions in less than two minutes.  We have two weeks to practice. multiplication.com
