Teacher’s corner:
Today we had a chance to participate in a conversation
with Elder Randy. Elder Randy talked to the students about how Treaty 7 came
about, his role as a council member for 24 years of Kainai First nations (Southern
Alberta, near Lethbridge). Elder Randy invited students to ask questions and
shared a few artifacts.
Math:
Today we started working on a long division. Students had to think about the following
questions:
1. If
you know your multiplication facts (times tables), does it mean that you
automatically know division facts?
2. What
can dividend and a divider be in order to have a quotient close to 10?
We explored short division as a first strategy.
Please, keep on practising times tables.
