Math:
We began our fractions unit. Students learned about equal shares and cut chocolate chip cookies into halves. They shared 1/2 of their cookie with a friend.

Ms. Furczon's shop is doing well !! Students are getting much faster at recognizing and counting Canadian coins. We are also using money in our pretend ice-cream shop!


Literacy:
This week, instead of table rotations, students had an opportunity to choose centres that they were interested in. Everyone was so engaged for 40 minutes!




Social Studies:
We discussed our responsibilities in the community and answered questions in small groups.



Math games and reading with our Grade 4 reading buddies.

Living and nonliving things! We have an earthworm garden in our classroom- the fun never stops!
