Day 20

Hello,

Here is what we did today.

Calendar: We talked about the seasons and what the weather is like
Gym: Please see Ms. Lovan's blog for more information
Journal: We talked about what we are thankful for in relation to Thanksgiving. The students talked about how they are thankful for their family, food and their parents.
Math: We did a pre-test for patterning today. Some of the children knew some information about patterning but I am optimistic that we will know lots by the end!

Lunch/Recess

Unit of inquiry: We talked about the five senses and how we can use them. Next we talked about smelling and read a book. They learned what their nostrils are and how the nose sends messages to the brain. The children completed a worksheet and circled the things they can smell.

French: Please see Mlle. Jessica's blog for more information

Lunch/Recess

Library: We went to the library to sign out books to keep in the classroom for silent reading time and daily five

Daily Five: We worked on finding little words in the word 'Thanksgiving', read silently by ourselves or with a partner and listened to books on the computer.

Overall I feel we are doing really well and are making great progress!

Miss. Ross
