Bonjour, Please continue practicing for the March homework presentations; they will take place on Tuesday, the 17th. Today, we had Sound Kreations first thing in the morning. The students learned a new dance move called "the clock"; ask your child to show you! After sound creations, we made a graph of the students' favourite fruits and had centre time. After centres, we had our Food Impact presentation. It was great! The students learned about Canada's food guide and also learned about the different "superpowers" that each food group gives our bodies. After an engaging discussion, the students got to make their own yogurt parfait snacks and were given a sample of wow butter to take home. Following the presentation, we reviewed our letter sounds and played a math game. We ended the day with a story and a sharing circle. With Spring Break approaching, please remember that as of Mar. 12, anyone currently outside of Canada or planning to trave...
Bonjour, Our class is still looking for a volunteer for Friday morning. If you can come, please sign up, it would be greatly appreciated. During our French circle time this morning, we practiced saying how old we are in French, which is a part of this month's homework. Today, we also expanded on our health conversation from yesterday by writing about good health in our journals and drawing at least three different healthy habits. Afterwards, the students had music with Mme Edgett and centre time. During centre time, we did some painting! At the end of the day, I introduced the final three letter sounds, "X", "Y", and "Z". The students were so excited that we've reached the of the alphabet. We will continue practicing letter sound and identifying them in our classroom songs and vocabulary.
Bonjour! Tomorrow is our homework presentation day.I'm looking forward to hearing about everyone's celebrations. Please make sure that the homework sheet comes to school in the purple folder tomorrow. Today, we had a very special gym class! We had John Leslie, a paralympic gold medalist, join us! John and his colleague, Connor, helped the kids try on and use ski and snowboard equipment in different centres around the gym. Today, we also wrote in our journals and talked about using a capital letter, spacing between words, and ending our sentences with a period. After centre time, we practiced subitizing and read a story about a mouse who lives in a gingerbread house. I still haven't been able to add the videos to the blog; I will try to edit them down in time and see if that works.
