Caribou Math Contest:
This message is only for those participating in the Caribou Math Contest. 
The next Caribou contest will be taking place Wednesday, February 26th, 2020. Students are to arrive at 7:15 am for a 7:30 am start. They should bring their own charged devices.
The interactive question for Grades 2-10 will be Bomb Defuser and for Grade 11/12 it will be GeomeTree requiring a construction involving lines and circles. Because Caribou’s GeomeTree site can be used to solve the interactive question, this site will be blocked at noon on Tuesday, February 25th. Both interactive questions are accessible from Caribou’s Games/History page.

Inquiry into Language
Students broke out into their summative partners to work on completing sentences for this weeks list words. Each group had to complete two sentences for each list word they were assigned, one sentence per person in the group. Then the other student had to go back and edit their peers sentence looking for spelling, grammar and punctuation errors.
Level C (above)
Level B (above)

Unit of Inquiry
At the beginning we sat together to go through the rubric students will be graded on, along with the graphic organizer they will have to fill out. Then students broke out into their groups to brainstorm what device they can create to help prevent or minimize the effects of the environmental issue they chose. Tomorrow students will break into their groups again to finalize and get their devices approved so they can move forward with bringing in the materials they would need to build their devices.

Inquiry into Math
As a class we took up the review today. Students provided the answers to the questions and we worked through some strategies they can use to ensure they arrive at the correct answers. Students are encouraged to practice any challenging questions from their review.

Agenda
- Read for 25 minutes
- Spelling Lesson 23 + Sentences
