Weekend Homework for Friday October 7th-9th

Greetings Earthlings,

My name is Captain Blark Djingerloob.  I have kidnapped your teacher, Mr. Mason.  He has been taken prisoner and transported to our home, 6.5 million lightyears away, on the planet Glarb.

Before we kidnapped him, he told us that he would rather die than leave his class without their homework on the class blog.  So, we decided to make the post for him.

Here are the games he wants you to play.

The first game "Spaced Out Subject-Verb Agreement" is to be played 3 times.  

The second game "Deep Space Irregular Verbs" is also to be played 3 times.  Record your scores.

The third game "Galactic Adverbs of Time" is to be played 3 times.  Record your scores.

**Report your scores on a piece of paper and some day, if Mr. Mason ever returns, he will check your scores (possibily Monday.)

REMEMBER!!  AT LEAST THREE TIMES EACH!  

WARNING:
IF 
YOU 
DON'T 
DO 
YOUR 
HOMEWORK, 
WE 
MAY 
DESTROY 
YOUR 
TEACHER.

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT!?

Ethics

Hi Year 5:

This post is to get you started thinking about what the word "ethics" means.

First, get out your PYP folder and take out the worksheet titled, "Ethics Vocabulary".

Here are the four vocabulary words.

Ethics
Morals
Principles
Prejudice

Now watch this video.

I found this incredible project on the web.  The Happiness Club is a group that helps create peace and love in places where there is a lot of violence and conflict.  They create songs, sing and dance to spread their message.

And this one....

Buddy Reading with Year 1A

We love Year 1!!!  Come back any time friends!

Videos About Our Exhibition

Hi everyone,

I really love this video.  It ends with the line: "People make choices, choices make history."  I like it because it reminds us that every small choice has an impact, maybe even a big impact down the line. Too often we try to free ourselves from responsibility and guilt, instead of admitting to our mistakes.  Only by accepting that choices can be unethical can we learn to be ethical and solve the conflicts in the world.

Mr. Mason
