Unit of Inquiry
Students read silently for 15 minutes. We then watched a video on Monocot and Dicot plants. Students began to work on a cut-and-paste activity to demonstrate their understanding of the difference between monocot and dicot plants. In addition to this, they are required to draw and example of each type of plant that shows how the structure of the plant is different from the other using the information they learned today.

Inquiry into Language
We began our new novel study "The Secret Garden" today. As a class we read through the first chapter and discussed what happened. As we read, students are required to write down any words they are unfamiliar with in their novel study dictionary. Students are then responsible to find the meaning of that word by using a dictionary or online search engine.

RECESS/ LUNCH

Wizard of Oz Rehearsal
We practiced our performance for Art's Night. 

Inquiry into Math
We reviewed how to use the appropriate symbols to represent parallel lines, equal side lengths and right angles in polygons. Students learned and practiced how to draw 3D shapes using graph paper and on plain white paper. We did some examples together, then they began their homework.
