Our last week was a busy one, as usual!
Monday we have our Sports Fun Day outside! The weather was perfect! The kids were having a great time getting their faces painted, playing in bubbles and even some boys were playing sports with the grade 6's! They were so proud of themselves for keeping up :). I was in charge of an obstacle course station and was able to catch a few snaps!
In Math we finished up our 3D shapes unit talking about the names of shapes and how we can sort them based on one attribute. The students were getting quite good at sorting by the end of the week! On Friday we had a little fun playing all the math games we have learned since April. I can't believe how good these kiddos are getting at their math facts! Feel free to play these games over the summer to continue to practice math facts!
- Add it up War: Using a regular deck of cards (K, Q, J = 10, Jokers = 0), students flip 2 cards and the highest sum wins all the cards! Ties are the classic war strategy of lining up three cards and then next draw - highest card wins! They loved this game and it can be played anywhere and with subtraction (lowest sum wins).
- Math Facts With Dice: Students roll two dice each, highest sum wins and is awarded 10 points (lowest sum for subtraction). At the end you add up all the points to see who's won! Play with about 15 turns.
Thursday was our PJ & Movie Day! Thank you parents for all your treats! We had a comfortable afternoon with very full bellies!
We had a special visit from the Grade 2's to present their Social projects. The grade 2's gave us a preview of what is to come next year in Social! Thank's Mrs. Kruse's class!
On our last day Liam was a guest reader and read to the students one last time for the end of the year.
Have a wonderful summer and enjoy any vacations you go on! See some of you in September!!!
