Even though this was a short week we managed to get a lot done. Everyone really enjoyed handing out Valentines to classmates and we even enjoyed a virtual bullying awareness magic show!
I Can Communicate Learning in New Ways
We have been hard at work writing and illustrating pages for a book we are writing to share with other classes in the school. This process has meant that students have had to look outside themselves to think about what would make interesting writing for other people. During the process we talked about adding detail to our writing and using lots of bright colours in our quality 4-star illustrations. Here's a sneak peak of work so far . . .
This week most of the class worked on 'fl' and 'gl' in our phonics study.
Ms. Yasin's Math Group:
This week in math with Ms. Yasin, students practiced the mental math strategy of adding 10! Students used a 100's chart to find the speedy quick trick for adding a 10 to ANY number: just jump down! Then they were able to add 10 to numbers without needing to use their fingers. Some students were excited to try the challenge of adding multiples of 10 as well!
