Literacy
Last week, Mr. Rankin had you draw a picture of a plant and then label it. Well today, you are going to trace your hands and use them to make three very important parts of a plant (roots, leaves and flower). If you have coloured paper, you can use brown, green and whatever colour you want your flower to be. If you don’t have coloured paper, you can trace your hands on white paper and then colour them and then cut them out. For the roots and the flower, spread your fingers and for the leaves, keep your fingers tight. If you look at the picture below (which you can use as a guide, so yours doesn’t have to look exactly like this one) you will notice that the hands are overlapping on the roots and the flower. You may choose to do this. The only part of the flower that is not made from tracing your hands is the stem.
JK students are asked to print the title-Parts of a Plant
SK students are asked to print the same title and then complete these sentences.
My roots are ________________________.
My stem is __________________________.
My leaves are _______________________.
My flower is ________________________.
Math

5 and _______ make 10
6 and _______ make 10
7 and _______ make 10
8 and _______ make 10
9 and _______ make 10
What do you notice about ---1 and 9 make 10 and ---9 and 1 make 10?
Do you notice something about some of the other number sentences?
