Upcoming Reminders and/or Events:
- Trail Walk is on Wednesday. Parents are welcome to join us. You can let me know by signing up here or just show up Wednesday morning!
Spelling: Unit 10 words focus on "i before e, except after c, or as in weigh." Words such as brief, receipt, and freight.
Reading:
- This week Miss Norris introduced 'book commercials' to us. After we read a book, we will share about our book in a commercial format for the class. The commercials give some details about the book we read such as the genre, title, author, characters, setting, and problem without giving away the resolution. Through sharing these books, we just may find some ideas for our 'books to read next' list.
Writing Studio:
- Today students looked over their first published piece and noticed what they did well and what they need to work on. We are beginning to write another piece and will work on these areas. We will also be talking about types of sentences and practice writing stronger sentences.
Math Studio: We finished our estimation addition checklist and will be working on the estimation subtraction checklist this week before moving on to addition/subtraction.
Science: We will be starting our next science topic this week on the big idea: the motions of Earth and the moon cause observable patterns that affect living and non-living systems.
Gym: We continue floor hockey this week with passing, defence, scoring, and goal tending skills practice.
