Today in Social Studies we talked about Saskatoon and it's Ukrainian history. Students learned to write three words in Ukrainian and then we played Boomchyk's Kitchen (http://www.ukrainianpower.com/UKGAMES/kitchen.html) where we learned to say several basic kitchen words in Ukrainian.

In math we measured the length 3 objects from around the classroom using 2 different units.  We discovered that if the unit was larger (popsicle sticks instead of pennies), we would need fewer of them.  We also discovered that the width of our hallway is 120 pop tabs!!  Eyvind and Emily measured one square (which equalled 12 pop tabs) and multiplied it by 10 squares (the width of the hallway).  Well done!
