This week is Bullying Awareness Week.
Media Literacy
Today we looked at a very powerful commercial. Share with your parents the messages (implicit and explicit) of the commercial. Below are the media terms we will be talking about this term.
Math
Please continue working in your booklet. We want to complete this unit by the end of the week. Look at Sunday's post for your question. We will have a test on Patterns on Tuesday, November 22nd.

Mental math strategies you should be practising at home. Use 38 + 17 to show each of the strategies.
Science
Today we began our discussion on the different kinds of mining: underground and surface. We watched an interesting video on how gold was mined using open-pit (surface mining) and underground (shaft mining). Tomorrow we will look at the cost and benefits of both types of mining.


Here's a short clip on underground salt mining:
