This two-day week of school certainly flew by! It was great to notice such an improvement in the kids’ stamina today, and I am very confident that this will continue to improve in the next few weeks. Have a great long weekend!

Morning Routine

Math Centres – We learned our first math centre today, addition war, and practiced playing with our responsibility partners.

Recess

Daily 5 – We reviewed the 3 ways to read a book and then discussed how to choose “good-fit books” based on this criteria:

I – I select a book and look it over, inside and out

P – Purpose: Why might I want to read it?

I – Interest: Does it interest me?

C – Comprehend: Do I understand what I am reading?

K – Know: Do I know most of the words?

*This criteria can also be used at home/at the library when selecting books to read.

Lunch

Genius Hour – Before beginning actual genius hour, we will be taking the time learn about our brains and how they work. We discussed how understanding how our brains work can help us be better thinkers, researchers, and learners.
