Today we: started off with our literacy routine - Phonics and then Word Work. Students are progressing well in their groups and are becoming more independent as the weeks go on.
In math, we continue to practice long division and multiplying 2-digit numbers for our test on Thursday. Small groups spread out with "experts" in each pairing to help a classmate practice more. Some are confident in the order of the steps, while others have no need to look at their multiplication charts. The more we practice - the more it sticks!
After lunch, the students had music. They watched an Irish film and did an Irish jig/dance.
We did a brief reflection of our social projects as they have been marked and returned. Students wrote about what they learned from the process, why they think it is important to learn it, and what they could have done better looking back.
The day ended with P.E. and they played a game called Whacky Stick. Teams had to capture a variety of sized sports balls from a partially closed off area using their hockey handling skills. Each type of ball was worth a different amount of points based on how hard it is to handle it with a stick.
