In math, the students have been practicing lots of measuring. First they started with mm, cm, and meters. Then they practised finding the perimeter and area of a variety of objects in the class and creating their own figures using geo-boards and math tiles. The students have also been working on these fun "Area Characters". They had to cut the square units and find the area of their character. They turned out so cute!
In Religion class, we talked a little about how Jesus was a very good storyteller, and that his stories are called "parables". As an intro to our study on parables, the students created a totem pole where they could tell their own "story". They had to choose important symbols and explain the meaning behind their choices.
