Wrapping up April!

I can't believe its almost May! This year has flown by!

With our Fundrasing efforts, we are planning to have a snack sale in the halls the week of May 17-19th. If you would like to contribute snacks or baked goods please let me know as soon as possible. 

Every Tuesday and Thursday we do our 5 minute quick write - this is where I ask the students a question and they have 5 minutes to tell me as much as they can! They are becoming such budding writers! 




This week we have introduced a Daily 5 Station during Science! We discussed Read to Someone, the expectations and what it looks like. We talked about EEKK and read a little poem. This is what Read to Someone looks like. 

Together, students read their Seasons story. We are still focusing on Spring and what we can find in this season. This week we focused on Spring Weather! It can be unpredictable at times, but we usually see some of the same things. 
Students made a web of the weather they would see in Spring and dressed "Tony" in some spring clothing.




In Social, we are talking about Landmarks! Our friend, Barnaby the Bear, is travelling all around Alberta and sent us post cards from various places. We can see on the post cards the landmarks that are unique to those communities. Afterwards, we brainstormed which landmarks are unique or important to Leduc and made our own post cards! Keep your eyes open for them in your mail!

We also are still swimming every Wednesday! Our students are making me so proud with how well they are listening to their instructors! 
Thank you for packing extra snacks, it really helps them, as when we get back they are starving!
