For our UOI summative presentations, parents are welcome to attend at 2pm on May 3rd. Actual presentations will begin at 2:20pm however parents are welcome to arrive at 2:00pm and take a look/ask questions at the display tables. After the presentations and voting, students are allowed to leave with their parents.

Math:
Today students looked at Patterns in Geometry. We started off by looking at a textbook question and worked together as a class. 

We then looked at the homework page and worked through the Try These question on the front page. Students were able to use their input/output machine knowledge to help them create a sentence explaining how to relate Number of Square and Perimeter.
