Time to Get "In Shape"

                                              
Since out latest math unit is coming to an end today with our summative evaluation, it is important to already look ahead to the next topic of study.  Beginning next week, we will be studying geometry.  From past experiences, students come to grade six with either an inferior bank of knowledge, or they have forgotten the many things they have learned in the past.  This weekend the homework is to review and study the seven resource pages that are attached to the bottom of our Numeracy Anchor Chart Archive page.  You can view each one by clicking on the title of the resource, or you can download them and print them for a hard copy.  The items that are new to grade six will be taught, but the information that has been learned in previous years should be in your schema so that when the terms and concepts are used in class you understand what is being said.  Please be sure to have your geometry set at school on Monday because we will use it daily in math for this unit!
