In social studies we read a book called "Shi-shi-etko" (AR). We made a visual journal page called "My Memory Bag" where we drew things that were really important to us and a part of our culture and made connections to nature (RR).

In math we checked over our tests. We had a chance to make some corrections (EY).

During book club we now have different jobs to do. We read a bit each day and then complete one of our jobs (SA).

In gym we played a new game called 4 Corners (TB1).

Today we continued with our cookie math problem from yesterday. We found that there are lots of different ways that you can split up 36 cookies. After recess we had book club. We also read a story called "Secret of the Dance" and talked about First Nations people. We learned about the Indian Act and how it prevented First Nations people from having ceremonies, doing their dances, or having family dinners. This afternoon we did a survey with Ms. Brown. After that we read another story called "Thunder Boy Jr.". We talked about how First Nations people showed their respect for the land in lots of different ways. One of the ways they did this was through their names! We also talked about how they choose something (like a bear) to represent their clan (family). We all drew a picture of something from nature that represents our classroom and we are creating a classroom clan symbol.
