-Social Studies test from last week have been marked. Students and I will go over them soon with the marks being released from their Google Classroom. If you require the mark by email, please let me know.
-Science: Students are learning about conductors, insulators, resistors, as well as building a variety of circuits. The students are chomping at the bit to build, so there will be a few new projects being worked on in the coming weeks and they will have lots to show and explain to you for the March conferences.
-Math: Students are working on identifying the characteristics of quadrilateral shapes, parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular lines, perimeter, area, units of linear measurement (mm, cm, m), as well as the introduction to motion geometry with slides/translations, turns/rotations, and flips/reflections.
