Mr. Berry's Grade 5 Class

Reminders: School does not resume until Tuesday. Homework: Read for 20 minutes per night. Daily Learning: We have moved into our new math unit, which is Algebra. The students are trying to solve unknown variables using addition and subtraction. In social studies, we continue to learn about the history of Canada and all the important historical figures that shaped our identity. We continued our Heroe's Journey prep and will be ready to begin writing the story next week sometime. jaberry@cbe.ab.ca

Reminder: New start time for school is 8:00AM and the new end time is 2:35PM. New class structure begins tomorrow. Homework: Read for 20 minutes. Daily Learning: Review of fractions and decimals continues. The test will be on Wednesday. The students also continued with the daily 5. We are about halfway through The Storm Runner, our class novel. In writing we did free writing so the students could write about an interest of theirs. This hopefully encourages them to write more down. The students also got new words for word work and did shared reading with one friend. In science, the students build a series circuit and a parallel circuit and compared how the two differ. We will do social studies tomorrow once the new classes begin. jaberry@cbe.ab.ca
