November 15th-19th

It was so good to have a five-day week!

In Science, we conducted an experiment entitled “What’s That Smell?”. We had 6 unidentified household scents that we took turns smelling and made predictions of what it could be. We also made a list of good and bad smells in our Visual Journals.

We wrote about why we love Canada and created a visual journal page along with the Canadian flag to demonstrate one of the groups that we belong to.

In Math, we have practiced open-ended problems and how to organize our Math books correctly.  We also practiced the Counting On strategy for addition. You count up or on when you are adding small numbers of 1, 2 and 3. We have been using the number line as a tool. We start at the larger number and then make jumps of 1, 2 or 3 to find the correct total.

In Physical Education, students experienced a week of Hip-Hop Dance. Students could be heard saying, “That was amazing!” and “What Fun!” Video links should be coming home on Monday for you to view together.

Please send in a pair of cheap headphones with your child. Place them in a Ziploc bag and label both the bag and headphones with their name. Thanks to those who have already done so.

Please remember to book a Parent-Teacher conference time, if you have not done so already.
