Hope everyone had a great weekend! Today was picture and everyone looked great and brought their very best smiles to school J I just wanted to remind everyone that next week the paving construction will begin, so please remember to park on the road and come in with your child. Here is a look at our day.

Math

Grade 1

We began the lesson by reading the M&M’s Counting Book! Then as a class we looked at the big math book, and went through different methods of counting numbers. I ensured that all students understood that even thought the picture was arranged differently the number will always be the same.  Students then worked in pairs to make their arrangement of 2 numbers. Students then used snapcubes together at the carpet to make different combinations of 6.

Homework: MMS pgs. 25-27.

Grade 2

Students had their unit 2 test today!

UOI

Grade 1

Today we read the Dinosaur Train book! After that students really got to use their imagination and created their own dinosaur! Students made up a name for their dinosaur, what it eats, where it lives and how old it is and record it on their worksheet. Then students designed their own dinosaur by sketching it out in pencil and then using construction paper to add details! This was a really fun activity today1
