Hello families!
It's May and the sun is out today! The students truly loved the sunshine today after all that rain/snow/sleet/blizzard we had this week!
Students have been busy with their research about glacial erratics that we learned about on our coulee walk last week. We also saw the crocuses on the hillside while we were out there which led to an inquiry about them and some beautiful watercolour artwork! In math we are working to form a deeper understanding about fractions using manipulatives, through problem solving, other strategies and art. We have completed another round of small reading groups and will continue to focus on reading comprehension through stories - reading a variety of genres and then writing our own short stories. Students are working on perspective writing as well, including learning about the structure of this type of writing. We have also started a new novel study called Hoot. Students are enjoying it so far! Our Tomatosphere plants continue to be nurtured, some sprouting and others still dormant! We are learning more about decomposers and the parts of plants and flowers.
Music Monday - May 6 Does your child play a musical instrument? Upload a video onto their Google Drive of them playing a song they know! Or, if the instrument is portable, have them bring it in to school to play a song live!
Hats on for Mental Health - May 8 Wear your hat in school to show your support and awareness for Mental Health!
