Here is what we did today!
Calendar: Today our routine was by Maya.
Gym: Please see Ms. Lovan's blog for more information.
Phonics: Today we started talking about long a sound. First we talked about what the difference between a long and short a sound was and we stretched out many words in order to hear the difference. Next we made a list of different words that had the long a sound in it. Finally the children used this list to choose a word and make that word out of play-doh together out as a group.




Math: Today we completed our math patterning test. The children did quite well!
Lunch/Recess
Math: We used this time to finish our patterning test.
Unit of inquiry: Today we reviewed the parts of a plant using the song we learned! The children had so much fun that we had to share with you all. Here is a video of the children singing part of the song.
Next the children did a flower craft using sunflower seeds. The children had to label the parts of the flower.
Lunch/Recess
Phonics: We reviewed the long a sound again by reading a book. Every time the students heard the long a sound they had to clap!
Journal: Today journal was about our favourite foods. Once again we focused on the size of the letter, ensuring the letters were formed properly and that they had tried to sound out their favourite foods. Here are some pictures of some excellent journals from today.
We ended the day practicing our song for the Christmas concert!
