Day 48

Hello,

Here is what we did today!

Calendar: Today our routine was led by Layla.
Gym: Please see Ms. Lovan's blog for more information.
Phonics: Today we continued talking about "short a". We sang the jolly jingles a song and found the "short a" and "long a" in the song and reminded ourselves what the difference is between "short a" and a "long a". Next we completed a worksheet.
Language: Today we did some work for our report card and drew a picture of what they will look like in term 2. It will be in their report cards!
Math: In math today we continued talking about data management. Today we moved onto knowing the difference between heavy and light objects. We used the hula hoops again and put difference objects in both hula hoops to compare the difference. Next they did a cut and paste activity. Everyone did really well!

Lunch/Recess

Unit of inquiry: Today we finished off the "Plants we eat booklet". We reviewed the parts of a plant that we eat using the pictures again and put them in the five categories: flower, stem, seeds, roots, leaves and fruits. They did fantastic! Some people had finished their already so they completed daily five during this time. Those people that were not done had some time to finish.

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

Lunch/Recess

Journal: Today we did some more work for our report cards and wrote some sentences about what we learned so far this term.

We ended the day practicing our song for the Christmas song with Ms. Bancud's class. It is starting to sound really good!

Have a great night!

Miss. Ross
