With our Guess Jar this week we had a very popular treat, Warheads! Students from every Grade were very excited to make a guess! With each guess being only 25 cents, this week we raised 48.75 for the Stollery!!!
In Language Arts, we are continuing to work with Fairy Tales. This week we focused on different versions of the story of the Three Little Pigs! We started off with reading The Three Little Fish and the Big Bad Shark. Once we read this story we talked about the characters and their feelings, the fish are scared and homes are ruined, but the shark is just looking for something to eat! Then the students made a choice on who to support; Shark or Three Little Fish? They had to explain why they made their choice.
Later in the week, we read The Three Little Robots and the Big Bad Robot and The True Story of the Three Little Pigs. We looked at the similarities and differences in all the versions of this story.
After reading, students made WANTED posters for the villain of their choice!
In Math, we wrapped up 2D & 3D shapes and are moving onto Adding and Subtracting to 20! Students started this unit by looking at a picture and practicing creating their own number sentence from what they see. They did awesome!
Next week we will start working on Adding and Subtracting to 20 with Tens frames and reviewing our Mental Math Strategies.
In Science, we have started talking about Spring! We went on a nature walk in the outdoor classroom and searched for all different signs of springs; buds, green grass, birds, bugs, etc.
In Social, we are talking about where we are in our world. We discussed the parts of a map, types of maps (globes count too) and where Canada is on the globe.
Swimming went great! They were really focused during their lessons and listened to their instructors!
Swimming will continue every Wednesday, 930-10.
