Math - Today we learned about variables, and how to use them to represent unknown numbers, and predict the outcomes of patterns. We'll continue working on this concept tomorrow.

ELA - We had time to finish our rough copies of our Great Canadian Mail Race assignment, and started editing and revising our drafts. Make sure to check over your rough copy with me by Friday. We'll have time to type our good copies during computers next week.

Social Studies - We had our Canadian provinces/territories/capital cities quiz today.

Arts - We'll be sketching our Christmas Canvases with pencil later this week. Make sure you've got a rough-copy plan/outline in place!
