Today we started our fraction unit!  Big steps for Grade 6 :)
We used manipulatives today to be visual with our fractions.  We organized the cubes into groups, counted the totals, made fractions, made them into percents, and made our percents into fractions.  Then we had to come up with real world examples, and draw a picture of our fractions.   We will be continuing with this, this week, before moving into different types of fractions.

We then read silently for 10mins and had a snack before swimming.

After swimming we had a class meeting about lunchroom expectations / recess expectations / respect.

In the afternoon we continued with our provincial government - we were comparing local government to provincial government for how the terms are similar in stature but different in the level of politics.

We hope everyone has movie Monday!
