Fidget spinner Friday!


Happy Friday!

Mme Page was back with us today for another 3-Act lesson...
and we got to use our fidget spinners to kick-off the class!
Today we had to, first: figure out what information we would need to calculate how long a fidget spinner would spin for and second: actually complete the calculation itself.
To solve today's math problem, we had to use long division which some of us found a bit tricky.
Mme Page showed us a cool way to do long division that made dividing bigger numbers seem not so bad! Thanks, Mme! :)

This afternoon we also had a chance to welcome our incoming Grade 6s (this year's current Grade 5s) to our building. We all met in the gym for a message from Mme Buckwold before the 5s headed off to see their new classroom spaces and we stayed in the gym as a group to watch a video.

A group of us worked very hard at organizing the class and decorating the boards 
to ensure our new students felt very welcome! Thanks, team! 

          
Have a great weekend! :)
