TWAS

Today, the students had a fun surprise of doing their OWN attendance on the SMARTBoard! They had to find their name on the white side and slide it over to the red side. When they did it, their attendance magically changed from "______ is absent" TO "______ is here". A BIG thank you to Mrs. Tresoor for sharing it with me to use in our classroom!

It felt like a short week at school because we spent 3 days of it at Camp Arnes! Nick agreed to share his TWAS on the blog this week.

TWAS-Sept. 21,2012

This week at school we;

Went to camp Arnes! The boys stayed at Poplar Grove. In my room was Nathaniel, Cameron, Riley, Colin and Ryan W..The girls stayed at Cedar lodge. Most of the food was good. My favourite food was spaghetti. My favourite activity was Zipline. I went second on it. To get up you climbed up these thin horseshoe like things. At the end there was tires so you would not hit the pole. You had to wear a chest harness AND a leg harness. The leg harness was for climbing and chest harness was for the actual Zip. We arrived in 3 busses, one for Grade 5 and one for Grade 6. The last one was for ALL the luggage. It was so crammed in the luggage bus but lots of open seats in the grade 5 bus.

Got a new student! Her name is Carly. The fourth new student in our class this year. 1 is a boy and 3 girls. She moved in from Washington. She stays at our table with me, Jack, Kyla and Brooklyn. She is kinda quiet

More French with Ms. Davis. We did a sheet on history of French. We also did a sheet where we worked together in table groups to figure out what the clipart and spell it in French. We got 2 things. It was my name is and happy birthday.

Music. All we really did was the grade five review on music notes and sort our binders.

A attendance sheet on the SMARTBoard. When you walk in all the names say _______ is absent. Then you use your finger to slide in to the red box and it changes into _______ is here. Then at the end Ms. Wasney will do the attendance and mark down whoever is absent.

We had more number of the day. To decide the number of the day you would roll dice on the SMARTBoard. Then you would do stuff like multiply by 100 and count back by 5’s and sum of the digits and a lot more stuff.

A camp Arnes project. I’m doing a brochure. So I did a really good logo of camp Arnes on the front cover. You have to do a poster, a newspaper article or a brochure so I did a brochure. We would write about the food and activities and stuff like that.
