1st, 2nd and 3rd !

Math:. Today we took a break for subtraction and addition equations to learn about ordinal numbers! An ordinal number is the place of the number. For example, 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd. We did several examples together involving them standing in a line and determining which place there were in. We did some examples from the textbook involving which spot several months are in and letters in the alphabet are in. The students understood this concept very well and had a lot of fun during the lesson. We complete one worksheet in class and another was assigned as homework.

Gym: Please see Mr. Beresford's blog for more information.

UOI/Language: Today we worked on the good copy of our persuasive letters from our OREO rough draft. If anyone did not complete it during the class time, it was assigned for homework.

For students who completed all of their work, they were able to work on an Oreo Matching Game. There was 5 completed Oreos (Persuasive Speeches) that they had to put all the parts in order. The children had a blast working on this activity and really understood the concept well.

UOI: We worked on our good copies for our advertisements. We ensured it followed the outlined success criteria. Whoever did not complete the good copy had it assigned for homework. The success criteria is:

1. 2-3 ad techniques (no more than 4)
2. Purpose of the ad is stated
3. Company name
4. Logo
5. Slogan

Today we also started to talk about analyzing advertisements. We analyzed one print advertisement together. We asked ourselves several questions in order to break down the advertisement:

What is the product being advertised?
Who is responsible?
Who is the target audience?
What is the advertisement making people want?
What are the advertising techniques that have been used?

The students had a chance to analyze an advertisement with a partner as practice.
