Morning Routine

Math – We learned one new math centre, Pattern Police, then had a practice run-through of math centre time. Afterwards, we talked about how we still need to work on the centre sign-up process, as well as compromising and working on centres that are not our first choice. All students will have a chance to try every centre at least once even if it means they need to wait a few days.

Recess

Daily 5 – We practiced using “perfect printing” to write in our weekend news duotangs. These duotangs will be sent home on Fridays for parents to read and respond to. We had our first “Flashlight Friday” and did Read to Self in the dark with flashlights.

Lunch

Social – We went on a tour/scavenger hunt around the school to find out the answers to questions we came up with about our school community.

French – Mme. Jasper

Arts Ed. – We finished our leaf projects.
