Day 62




Hello,

Here is what we did today!

Calendar: Today our routine was led by Layla. She did a great job!
Gym: Please look at Ms. Lovan's blog for more information.
Phonics: Today we talked about the "Short Ii" sound. We talked about the difference between "Short Ii" and "long Ii". Next we made a list of words that have that sound in it: pig, dig, dish, swim. They made a great list! Finally they made several words from play-dog by sounding them out. Here are some pictures!







Journal: Today we wrote about "During winter I like to..."
Christmas concert: We continued to practice our song and dance. It is really coming along!

Lunch/Recess

Unit of Inquiry: Today we read a book about winter called "Snow wonder". It was about what we do in winter, wear and drink. Next we used our five senses to describe winter. They made a long list !
French: Please see Mlle. Jessica's blog for more information.

Lunch/Recess

Math: Today we started talking about adding. We talked about the words adding and plus and discussed that those words meant the numbers are getting bigger, putting two groups together. Next we practiced adding together using snap cubes. Finally the ended the period doing a worksheet where they had to practice adding by counting the pictures. They did really well!
Daily five: Everyone did some partner and individual reading.

Have a great night!

Miss. Ross

Year Ahead day

SJA is excited to announce that Year Ahead Day is happening again this year!  All SJA PYP students will be participating in this exciting event on Thursday, December 10th.   Year Ahead Day is a fun and interactive day for the students at SJA to spend a day in the class of the grade level ahead of them (example: SK students spend their day as Grade 1 students, Grade 6 students spend their day as Grade 7 students, etc.).  This is a great way for the students at SJA to get a glimpse into their future life at SJA!  Students can get to know the teachers, see their future classroom, and take part in activities they will be participating in next year.
