Please check our Math page for updates and things you can do at home to help your child get a head start and to reinforce concepts we will be teaching after the break.

The Great Chain Challenge

A test of collaborating skills. Today groups were given a sheet of paper 11x17. They were given one glue stick, a pair of scissors and one sheet of paper in each group of 3. The challenge was to come up with a plan to make the longest possible chain. The winning group made a chain 8 metres long!      

Board Games

    

We are still looking for items for our Ghana Gift Bags and we are still in need of donations for shipping. Any help you could provide in supporting our Global Leadership project would be greatly appreciated. Check out link to the website for some of the awesome projects going on at Dekpor School. 

We are still in need of loonies and toonies for shipping of our Ghana Gift Bags. If you have not yet contributed items, we could use some help to send some bags that are full but need shipping fees. 

Also check our math page for updates. 

Today we worked on finding the mystery side when calculating perimeter. Some had difficulty with this concept. I have posted a video on the math page to help students with this. There is also a game to help students practice this concept.
