Today we did a fun cheque activity. I gave the students Toys R Us flyers and they chose one item to buy. They had to write a cheque for the amount as well as show their understanding using pictures, numbers and words.
Today the class had the dreaded Grade 4 needle. As a reward for all the suffering, I decided that we would spend part of our afternoon making origami cats. One student in our class is from Japan so she was the teacher. I learned along with the rest of the class. We all had a great time!
