SCHOOL PHOTO ORDERS ARE DUE (online at www.platinumphotography.ca) ON OCTOBER 19th. Please send me an email if you would like your child's password to look this weekend. Otherwise, your child's proofs will be sent home on Tuesday and MUST be ordered that day to avoid a late charge. I understand this is VERY short notice, and appreciate the understanding.
Reading- All students continue to work on their reading skills at their personal level. All students reviewed the sounds that letters j, k, and l make. They also started looking at the 5 jobs of silent e.
Writing- Students continue to work on narrative stories. This past week they wrote about an important adult in their life. Students are learning how to check their own work to make sure their sentences make sense. (Do they have a noun, verb, and adjective? Do they start with an uppercase and end with end punctuation?)
Math- Room 15 students worked on math centres this week. They included practice counting by 2s starting at 1, creating and extending patterns, solving math problems using a picture and number sentence, and drawing base ten blocks.
Social- We continued our exploration of Meteghan, Saskatoon, and Iqaluit by studying the landforms and bodies of water surrounding Iqaluit.
Science- Students watched videos and read books to do research about ants. See the picture below for an example of the information they pulled from just 1 video!
