Weekend thoughts

     In Math, Ms. J has started the measurement strand and will be investigating area and perimeter.  Here are some links to websites that students could try to help them gain experience with this topic!

Area of rectangles and parallelograms 

Area of triangles and trapezoids

  In Literacy we are working on our culminating task which is to write a Fairy Tale.  Here is a graphic organizer we used in class to help start writing our Fairy Tales.  This tool is used to brainstorm the main points of your Fairy tale and help organize our ideas.  Then we are able to move on to the "Pre-writing" phase where we add details and start writing!

                                             Characters                                      Setting
                                                                     Conflict/Problem
