Both the Math and French Quizzes were returned today; sign them for a bonus point!

Library - We started our morning in the computer lab with Mrs. Tomm learning how to code or program, using Scratch.  They had a lot of fun; this will continue for a few weeks during this time.

After recess, we reviewed Alliteration (shared examples from our packages), and worked on another package that addresses all of the types of Literary Devices students have been introduced to.  There will be a quiz on Wednesday, and a special final project we will start tomorrow!

Our entire afternoon was spent focussing on Syria.  We watched some videos, held discussions in the class, and completed a BBC 'choose the journey' activity on the computer.  (The link is on the "Interesting Stories..." page.)
