Happy Tuesday Parents!

We began our day with math where we started by taking up the work from yesterday’s class! I let the students use my red pens and they were very excited about that! We then worked on telling time, most students remember how to tell time from previous years but some are still having trouble with the minute hands! As a result I am dividing the lesson into two parts and tomorrow we are discussing telling time in a different way (half past, quarter to etc.).




In language we discussed inferencing or making conclusions based on evidence from the text and using our own background knowledge. We read a story and answered a couple questions as a class on the carpet and then students read riddles and guessed a place that the author is trying to describe. This is going to help them while they are reading stories on their own!




After recess and lunch we had a very exciting UOI where we were able to work on the tablets to complete a scavenger hunt! We were all inquirers and researchers and used our resources to answer questions and come up with some amazing facts about forces and motion to share with the class. I am so proud of all of their hard work and they LOVED having access to the technology!

After French, second lunch and recess, we watched some really amazing videos that were brought in by a student in Ms. Ross’s class about forces and motion to help us gain a better understanding of key concepts such as gravity and friction.

We ended the day with gym and agendas before heading off to kiss and ride
