Day 105
Hello!
Here is what we did today.
French: Please see Mlle. Jessica's blog for more information.
Calendar: Today our routine was led by Maya.
Phonics: Today we talked about the letter "Yy". We sang the song, practiced the action and found all of the words that have the letter "Yy" in them. We talked about the sounds that "Yy" makes and how sometimes it makes an "ee" sound instead which is a little silly! Next we made a list of words on the board that have a "Yy" in them. They thought of a lot of words and they continued on past this list throughout the day! Next they used play-doh to make words that have a "Yy" in them.
Gym: Please see Mr. Slyk's blog for more information.
Lunch/Recess
Library: We exchanged our books for new ones! We love going to the library!
UOI: Today we started on our summative! We are making collages. Each child picked two feelings that are different from each other. Next we found different pictures that represent those feelings as in words or pictures. They are doing well so far and having lots of fun doing it!
Lunch/Recess
Math: Today we had a quick math lesson. We reminded ourselves of the different coins we learned and how much they are worth. Next we had a few children come to the board and count some coins. Next we counted up in tens verbally and I yelled STOP periodically. The children had to tell me what number came next. They are really good at counting in tens!
House game: They played a game where the whole house was lined up and they had to use a hoola-hoop to go over/under each player on the team. Zeta came first place, then Kappa and then Theta. Good work everyone!
Bake Sale: Just a reminder that it is our turn to bring in treats for the bake sale. It would be greatly appreciated if you could bring in treats (cupcakes, cookies etc) as this helps us to raise more money! Thank you again for those who already told me they will be bringing something in for tomorrow. I am very grateful! Our students can also purchase items from the bake sale.

MYP Shakespeare play
Good day and good morrow fair lords and ladies;
The MYP beseeches you to attend their amendable performance of
Billy the Bard’s Merchant of Venice, colloquially
retitled The Merchant of Manhattan. In fair New York we lay
our scene; 6 suitors strive to win the hand of the divine socialite: Portia.
One suitor, Bassanio, is willing to risk all his good friend and cousin Antonio
has (including a pound of his noble flesh) to win this lady’s hand. Will such a
gamble and risk pay off, or will Bassanio wind up wifeless, friendless and
ultimately alone? To discover the answer to these harrowing questions, join us
on Tuesday March 1st. To buy passage into the production we respectfully
request a small donation of two gold coins (or a toonie) to help fund the Arts
program. We will also be holding a bake sale to provide some delectable
delights and light refreshments while you watch. These festivities shall
commence at 6:00pm. For now I shall retire, but I do anticipate your
presence. God keep you!
Day 104
Hello!
Here is what we did on Friday.
French: Please see Mlle. Jessica's blog for more information.
Calendar: Today our routine was led by Julia.
Phonics: We started off phonics with show and share! We talked about V and OO this week. Our presenters talked about their item and spelled it on the board with me. They did great! Next we reviewed the long vowel sounds by thinking of words with that sound in it. It was a good review as some people didn't remember!
Jordan talked about his choo-choo train!
Gym: Please see Mr. Slyk's blog for more information.
Lunch/Recess
Creature quest: The kids had so much fun during the creature quest. They had the chance to see many animals such as: turtle, snake, skunk, red fox, owl, lizard. The presenter talked about each animal and allowed the kids to ask questions about them. Here are some pictures!
Now the kids were allowed to pet them!
Lunch/Recess
Spelling Test: We completed our monthly spelling test.
Math: We introduced the dime today! We talked about what the dime looks like and how much it is worth. The children are so good at counting in tens because of our fish bowl it was easy for them already!
If you have any questions let me know.
