Hello,

Here is what we did on Friday.

Jordan brought a book about giraffes!

Alexa brought a bear!

Ethan brought fur!

Journal: My favourite drink is .... because....

Lunch/Recess

Art: Please see Mrs. Kerr's blog for more information.
UOI: Today we worked on family needs. We made a list of different things that a family needs in order to be a family. We talked about how a family needs: food, a home, hugs and kisses, happiness etc. We also decided that we didnt need things like: TV or video games. Next we did a worksheet in which the kids had to choose three things they thought a family needs and draw and label a picture.

Lunch/Recess

Math: Today we talked about the difference between shorter and longer. We talked about how longer didn't mean something was getting fatter but stretched out. We used markers to show them getting longer and shorter. Next the kids had a piece of ribbon and they had to measure things that were longer, shorter than or the same size as their string and write it down on their worksheet. They had so much fun finding things around the classroom!

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.
