Math Problems of the Week
If we can't use our skills to solve problems, then do we even HAVE skills?
Area
We are going to continue with our Zearn mission this week, looking at the "area" of regular and irregular shapes. Your goal is to be done all 16 lessons. When you're finished, there are extra challenge practice sheets attached to the assignment in Google Classroom.

LANGUAGE ARTS
Reading should be a constant in your life, whether you're at school or not! Please continue to access the digital reading options on our Language Arts page. Those of you with the ability to do so are encouraged to access RAZ-Kids. You can access leveled materials and answer questions to keep building your fluency and comprehension.
THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!!
THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!!
With our writing, we always want to make sure that we are paying attention to our neatness, punctuation and structure! We will continue to work on writing a new weekly paragraph every week. I will also try to have a "supplemental activity" every week as well to help stretch your skills. You can submit pieces of writing through the Google Classroom assignment that is posted. Here you can attach your work as a Google Doc, or a picture or scan of your actual written work. Let's try and see how it works!
Weekly Paragraph Write
Topic: If you could live as any animal for a day to see what it would be like, which one would you choose?
Why?
What do you imagine it would be like?
What would you have to consider or keep in mind?
Please make sure you're writing in a PARAGRAPH that sounds like English when you read it OUT LOUD!
Supplementary Language Arts Activity
Pick a Speech Topic!
It's time to start planning our speech writing! This week, you need to settle on a topic to speak about. This speech will be different than a regular research project you would do at school. Your topic needs to be an OPINION you have about something, not just research facts. So, if you wanted to do a speech about turtles, you couldn't just give turtle facts, you would have to talk about your opinion of turtles. "Turtles are fascinating creatures" or "I think we need to take better care of turtles". This week, think about something you feel STRONGLY about and could do a good job talking about. You should be asking me lots of questions if you need to. Submit your idea(s) attached to this assignment and we'll start figuring it out!
SCIENCE
We're going to start looking at Light & Shadows for Science. I will post one or more investigation questions for you to explore for the week. I will also try to include some hands-on activities you can do at home.
Weekly Science Question
REFRACTION!
For this week, I'd like you to talk to me about REFRACTION.
What is refraction? How does it work? Could refraction be useful?
I would like you to explain it in as much detail as possible (you could even do a video), and to try at least one of the experiments that are attached to the assignment in Google Classroom. A picture of the experiment would be great!
SOCIAL STUDIES
Early Alberta, David Thompson & The Fur Trade
We are going to try to explore some of our history through some reader's theater supplied by the Rocky Mountain House Historic Site. Time to act and get dramatic! If you don't have puppets, I challenge you to find a way to perform these scripts out loud for someone every week. Get your family members to take on roles!
I will post a new script each week along with some photos and videos of anything I can find that would help. I would also like to know what FACTS you learn each new week from the scripts, photos and/or videos.
