Math: Improper to Mixed Numbers, Percents, Decimals

Social: Provincial Election Process

LA: Story planning

Science: Properties of air

Today the students began their day by creating a booklet to formulate their ideas for a story they will be writing over the next two weeks. We rediscussed the story mountain and explored how the story must have a character, setting, conflict, events, climax and resolution. Students will be using this plan to create a story board and finally a story!

After LA we moved into working with Mixed and improper fractions, relating them to pictures!
Below are some examples of the types of problems you can see!

Convert the following Improper fractions into mixed numbers:

Convert the following mixed numbers into improper fractions


Students were given time after math to continue their presentations that they started researching based off their personal interests within provincial government.

For the last 45 minutes of the day students were given some time to create some winter/holiday decorations for the upcoming winter concert!

Have a great day!
Mr Lancee
