Then we had a presentation by Sarah from Glenbow Ranch. She told us how to keep Glenbow Ranch clean. She also taught us that the Ranch was once a town. Sarah taught us about the Post Office and General Store. She also reminded us to "Have Fun!!!!!!".
We then had a fantastic outside break in the beautiful weather. Some kids played soccer, some were on the playground and others played lava tag.
Next we had math. Mr. Neily's group worked on finishing word problems and number lines. Ms. Danchuk's group continued there work on skip counting and number patterns. Mr. Kai and Mr. Campbell's group reviewed number lines and skip counting using our class number line in the hallway outside the gym.
Lastly we worked on our assembly service. Half the pod made sentences with similes and the other half continued to dissect the poem, "In Flanders Field".
Reminders:
-Please return all Glenbow Ranch forms (purple) ASAP
-We still need Glenbow Ranch Volunteers
-Halloween Spooktacular forms need to be back
