And just like that, it's May and hopefully the nice weather is here to stay! We had a pretty uneventful week. We are currently editing our narratives to turn into a book on book creator. In Math we wrapped up data management and started looking at area. We also continued with our study on strong and stable structures and wrapped up basketball in gym class.
Next week is education week. The library is closed due to the book fair happening. We will be visiting the book fair on Tuesday during our normal library time. If you are sending money in with your child I would suggest putting it in a ziplock bag with their name and amount on it. This helps in case money gets dropped out of backpacks. It will also help me guide students to books they are able to afford. We have the open house on Thursday starting at 8:30. I look forward to seeing everyone who is able to attend. Finally we will be having our Education Week Liturgy on Thursday as well. Enjoy your weekend! Happy Friday! We had a great week with with lots of learning. This week we continued to work on our narrative writing and the students are doing great adding extra details to help the reader understand what is happening in their story. In math we started to explore pictographs and bar graphs. We've even kicked off a new science unit all about strong and stable structures.
A flyer for the school's book fair happening during Education week was sent home today. Our week next week is pretty normal week however you will notice that over the month of May we will be shifting most of our focus towards Math and Language as EQAO will be written at the end of the month. I hope everyone enjoys their weekend! We had a very productive week last week. We have wrapped up our unit on multiplication and division. We've jumped right into narrative writing and have begun to explore how to use quotation marks in our story to let our audience know when a character is talking. We also continue to work on improving our basketball skills. Finally, we will have library tomorrow (Tuesday). Have a great week!
This marks the end of all our short weeks. We are looking forward to getting back to our regularly scheduled program! This past week/week and a half in language we got back into UFLI and are moving along quite well. The students are doing a great job applying all the phonemic awareness we have reviewed and learned so far this year to their daily writing. In math, our focus was on division and really trying to understand what exactly it means to divide and what information we get from dividing in addition to various ways we can solve equations. We looked at oral health this past week as well and things we can do to ensure strong teeth and gums.
Nothing worthy to note for this week. Should be a regular week with some beautiful weather! |
