 Today we: continued working on the rough first draft of the letter for saving the wetlands. We discussed why it is important to protect them, such as the prevention of flooding due to a sponge-like absorption in the earth. Some students made it as far as self-editing by reading it aloud to themselves when they were done. 

In math, we continued our lessons on graphing. We looked at the amount of boys and girls in all of the grade 5 classes to create a double bar graph. Students then worked in small groups completing some exercises on data collection and double bar graphing. 

After lunch we did a Fibonacci art project. Students were tasked with measuring squares in decreasing size to fit the Fibonacci Spiral. 

We ended the day with some Bench Ball and 4-Corner Tag in P.E. which the students were thrilled to play. It was a wonderful day of focus and learning, and tomorrow we will have some time for students to catch up on missed or incomplete assignments.
