Cancellation of our Celebration of Learning!

BREAKING NEWS: There will be NO CLASSES on Friday, March 20th. 

Please note that Wednesday, March 18th is SUPERHERO DAY! Students can come to school dressed as superheroes or in superhero colours. They can even come dressed as community superheroes, like firefighters or police officers!

THANK YOU for our understanding the need to cancel our Celebration of Learning. We are so excited to share our google slides with you, and will let you know as soon as we reschedule 😊

This week, we were so happy to welcome our Area Director, Lori Prichard, into our classroom. Thank you, Lori, for letting us share our learning with you!

In LITERACY we continued to explore the elements of story by creating our own original fiction stories. Some of us used familiar characters and some used our imaginations to plan and write rough drafts of our stories. We look forward to editing them and creating final drafts next week to share with you at conferences! We also continued to explore parts of speech by learning about and identifying verbs, or action words. 

In MATH we continued  develop our skills in subtraction with regrouping! We built more equations and story problems using base ten blocks. We remembered that we can't take the bottom number away without "regrouping" from the tens place! This week, we focused heavily on solving using only the equation. We've been using our subtraction poem to complete the operation. We know that if we need a little help with our mental math we can use our tools, like a number line, pictures, or manipulatives! Ask your child to show you :)

In SCIENCE we FINISHED working on our google slides for our Celebration of Learning! Now we have been learning how to do cool things like adding backgrounds, transitions, pictures and videos! We are so excited to share these with you after March break!

Thanks for an amazing week of learning 😃
Please take care of your selves and each other! ♥️
