Term 1 Week 9

Hello Parents,

Thank you to all the parents who came to Parents' Morning. We had a great time exploring with you the properties of materials in the learning environment. We were happy to have you in our class.

In English class, we read and reviewed grade leveled  books. In addition, we continued to work on our writing skills. We also spent the rest of the week identifying direct and indirect meaning in a text.  We enjoyed finding unfamiliar words and using context clues to determine the meaning of the words.

In Math class, we started to inquire into ways to measure length.  We practiced how to read and use a ruler. This lesson provided us with the opportunity to apply our understanding of centimeters in a range of hands-on learning activities. In addition, we continued to work on estimation, comparing and ordering as important skills of measurement. 

                            

In Unit of Inquiry, we brainstormed ideas about what is technology and science.  We inquired into ways in which science and technology changed over the years. We had a great time working with our peers and researching, investigating and presenting on various topics.     

Have a good weekend,
Ms.Trichelle
