Former Les Bucherons performer, Ian Porteous, was at RBES today to share with us the Cultural Wheel presentation. The Cultural Wheel is made up of four quadrants, folklore, community, constructivism and celebration; his presentation today explored all of these quadrants, as students participated in the journey through story, music and dance. 

In Math, we began learning about double digit with regrouping.  We launched this concept using manipulatives.  It's tricky to remember to trade/sweep 10 cubes for 1 rod, but by the end of the lesson we were having great success!  

Cinquain poems were the focus of our writing today.  Students created a poem and illustration, then shared their masterpiece with the class.  The creativity of 2D students always amazes me!
