We are having an ongoing problem in our classroom. Students are talking over each other and over the teacher and the Teacher Candidate. Sometimes students are missing instruction.
We need to solve this problem as it is disrupting the learning of the students who are talking, but also the learning of the class as a whole. It is also really rude.
You are encouraged to bring your ideas on this to class tomorrow.
Other homework:
Language: Media-reflection
Math: Math problem on area/ capacity. You will be handing this in. Use the Math Journal success criteria.
Social Studies: Grade 5 concept map
Remember to bring in your field trip forms for Saturday's Blind Cinema experience.

You need to bring INDOOR shoes. You may not participate in Phys Ed without them and there are safety issues about you tracking wetness into the classroom. Plus think of the carpet people!
