Week ending Dec 2

Investigating area in Math...

On Friday, we explored the concept of area as the amount of surface a figure covers in square units.

The students used many ways to find the area of objects in the classroom.  Some students covered the entire surface area with square units and some counted the number of square units across (length) and multiplied it by the number of square units down (width).

On Friday, Dec. 9th, we will be having a summative unit test in Measurement. This will include linear measurement (measuring and conversions), perimeter, and area.







This week we met our new little Buddies in Mrs. Brown's Grade Two class. Together we will be reading, writing, and creating many new learning opportunities together. For our first meeting, our little buddies interviewed us, then we read a book together. We are looking forward to being positive mentors and role models for our younger school mates. 

MATH NIGHT was a great success! For those who were able to, thank you for coming and sharing the evening with your Beckett Farm family.

Warm wishes for the week ahead,

Mrs. McIntosh
