Hi Everyone,
Highlights of our Day:
- For eye opener today we were given two writing prompts. We had to choose one and then respond to our chosen prompt
- In guided reading today, Ms. Hill read with two groups again, while the rest of us worked on finishing word work and Think Tank from yesterday
- In writing, we continued to work on our Paragraph of the Week. Today we worked on writing the body of our paragraph. We had to choose 3 details from our brainstorm yesterday then add more detail in our explanation.
- In math today we worked on addition and regrouping. We were given 10 addition questions. For the first five questions we used our place value blocks to find the answers and for the second set of 5 questions we used the stacking method, where we stacked the numbers to add. We reviewed regrouping and were reminded to always remember to add the number you have carried over
- We continued our read aloud of "SuperFudge"
- In PE we continued to work on our running skills, we will be running the Terry Fox Run tomorrow!
- In social studies we took a closer look at the Grasslands and started working on creating a visual journal page representing the landforms, bodies of water, vegetation and animals in the Grasslands.
Reminders:
- Students were sent home yesterday with a small homework assignment to help us start our science unit on "Waste in Our World". We are asking you to keep track of your trash, composte and recycling over the next week. We will then use the information to make a graph. This home work is due back on Monday October 5th.
- Tomorrow is Terry Fox Run and Orange Shirt Day. Please make sure your child is dressed the weather and has proper shoes for running/walking. Students are also invited to wear an orange shirt, if they have one
- We will be moving away from the blog and started to put updates from the day onto the stream in our Google Classroom. This week I will be posted in both the blog and classroom, starting next week all updates about what we do in class will be in our Google Classroom so that all information is in one place .
- Friday October 9th-PD Day. No school
- Monday October 12th- Thanksgiving. No school
