Active Learning Guide for Grades 4-5 – Week 3

What better way to celebrate National Physical Fitness Month than getting active with your students in the classroom!

Use this editable active learning guide to lead your Grade 4 and Grade 5 students through activities that get them up and moving. We have assigned each day of the week a different learning area:

• Mondays we are ‘Moving in Mathematics‘
• Tuesdays it is ‘Grammar on the Go’
• Wednesdays we are ‘Shuffling Through Science‘
• Thursdays we are ‘Speeding Around Spelling‘
• Fridays it is  ‘Vocabulary with Vigor’.

Now, what are you waiting for? Let’s get our students to #moveinmay!
