ELA: Daily 5, Green words, focus on writing. We are practicing writing sentences with a who, what, and where, as well as a descriptive word in our sentence. We are also working on longer non-fiction writing pieces and sequencing using the words first, next, then, and finally. Continuing our winter theme we will be writing: How to Build a Snowman and How to Make a Bird Feeder. We will be making clay snowman and real bird feeders as an extension of our writing.
Math: Our unit of study is Adding and Subtracting to 12. This week we are working on adding doubles, addition strategies, and problem solving. Students are enjoying the many tech. links that help us with math concepts. Two of the links we've used to practice adding are Marble Math and Adding Bricks. Click the links to practice at home!
Science: This week for our Creating Colour unit we are exploring colour in many ways, including learning the difference between natural and manufactured colour, making colour wheel pizzas, and studying shades of colour.
