Next We practiced writing the letter on the board and writing it in the air. Finally they wrote the letter "Uu" with the playdoh

Journal: Today we wrote about what we did on the weekend.
Unit of inquiry:Today we began our new unit! Our new unit will be called "Down on the Farm". Today we started this unit by brainstorming where we get our food from and discussing which animal our food comes from. They knew a lot about where our food comes from!

Lunch/Recess

Math: Today we started working on AABB patterns. They reminded me that a pattern always REPEATS and then we made some AABB patterns together on the board and on the carpet. We found the core of the shape and determined which shape would come next.

ACTION

Action is a very significant aspect of the IB learning process. In the PYP Program, students will engage in 6 Unit of Inquiries (UOI) throughout the school year, with each unit being approximately 6 weeks long. During each UOI, 3 students from the class will be assigned as the “Action Stars”, which means that they are encouraged to use what has been learned and apply it to the “real world.” The purpose of this initiative is to help further knowledge about what has been learned within the classroom. Example: If we are learning about recycling, students might go home and tell you that they want to implement a recycling program with you at home, or they may do something simple like telling you that something you were throwing in the garbage may be recycled. Students who are not assigned this role for the current UOI being taught are still encouraged to show ACTION! Action comes in many forms; it might be something small to something very large, but as long as the children understand the concepts, action is important no matter the size! Please check out our Action board in our classroom to see all our fabulous learners.
