Take a look at our day:

French – Mme. Stella was away, so finished our UOI presentations!  

Dramatic Art – Mr. Monaghan

Gym – Ms. Lovan

Math Makes Sense

We continued to work with numbers, while finding out the easier ways to count. For example, if there is a lot of something, students figured out that it is easier to put them into groups of 10 first, and then count. Students practiced counting by 2’s, 5’s and 10.’s today.

MMS: pgs. 228 – 230  

Unit of Inquiry

Today we started our brand new unit! This unit is definitely my favourite. We will be learning about animals and their habitats! In groups, students brainstormed the definition of a habitat. We shared our ideas as class, and wrote a definition of what a habitat is. 

Definition: A habitat is the place where a plant or animal gets the things it needs to live.

Spelling

The students copied their weekly words from the board 3 times, and made a sentence for each word. They then practiced using these word in their spelling workbook!

SPA:  117 – 120 (DUE THURSDAY!)

Have a wonderful night!
