Everybody Needs A Rock


Everybody Needs A rock is the picture book we read in science today.  10 rules for finding the perfect rock.  We then started our own writing about our own rock - 10 things we like or notice about our rock.  On a rock.  Of course.

We continue to round numbers to the nearest 10 and some of us to the nearest 100.  We used Xtramath for extra practice as well.

Good readers can make connections to the books that they are reading because they are able to join together the text they are reading and an experience from their lives.  We found out that the story of your life will help you understand the story better.  A good reader can make a connection to a part of the story, a picture, a character or a feeling.  We read a story together and everyone in the classroom was able to put a sticky note somewhere in the story with a connection that they were able to make.

Dance continues tomorrow in gym with the Canadian National Ballet and then Wednesday we will start dance instruction with Shirley Hill an aboriginal dancer.

The majority of our BHS male staff members are participating in our traditional Movember
fundraiser. For a $1 donation students can buy one vote for the teacher with the worst or best mustache this month.
The donations will be going to the Canadian Movember Foundation. Movember is an annual event involving
the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men's health issues, 


such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and men's suicide
