Sept 4 Reminders

Continue working on your Summer Highlights brainstorm sheet.  Remember to focus on any new/interesting experiences rather than just the excursion itself (as we discussed today).  Remember to share your feelings/opinions of anything that happened or you participated in.

Continue working on your personal crest so that we have the majority posted up by Friday.  Focus on 1 theme/interest.

Begin reading chapter 1 "Place & Location" for our first Geography lesson tomorrow on relative and absolute location pgs.4-11 only.

We will begin a novel study of "Seedfolks" by Paul Fleischman.  The text will be projected on our smarboard & audiobook played for the read aloud.  As discussed, the novel is available for download on Google Play for $7.  You may also use your library card to place a hold (from your computer) on a hardcopy of the novel at http://www.torontopubliclibrary.ca and have it sent to your local branch for pick-up, as I showed you today (depending on the title, TPL also offers ebook downloads using your library card).

Binder tabs to start organization: Numeracy, Data Mgmt/Prob, Measurement, Geometry, Reading/Novel, Creative Writing, Geography, Science, Italian, French, Music, Misc.
