The students are really showing their abilities to think critically when solving math word problems. Today we also tied in some mass work and the students did a fantastic job of solving the problem many ways and using multiplication to show their thinking.
As we expand our use of literary techniques, we are starting to think about how we can use similies in our writing to help pain a picture and create depth in our writing. Today the students described themselves using similies and then wrote a "walking story" about the coulee using as many similies as they could.
This afternoon we moved onto exploring arch bridges. We were inspired by a photograph of the animal bridges in Banff to create an art piece using pencil and water colour.
