Week of March 16-19

Learning Intentions:
I can increase my flexibility and agility
I can move my body by rolling, jumping, climbing and throwing
I can follow instructions and move safely through the course
I can develop my balance and focus

In Gym, students enjoyed navigating their way through the last gymnastics unit: Mission Impossible. The entire gym was transformed into a series of challenging tasks from the moment you entered the gym.  Students were challenged to climb, toss beanbags, and move around obstacles in a variety of ways. This was a fun way to conclude our gymnastics unit.
 

Learning Intentions:
I can write to convince others of my opinion
I can explain why coral reefs need to be saved
I can make connections between what I’m reading and myself
I can use words and pictures to show my understanding of a story

In Literacy, students continued to ‘dive deep’ into our book study of “The Brilliant Deep”. First, students did a persuasive writing task where their goal was to help save coral reefs. Then, we used ‘text to self’ to draw on prior learning to write and draw about student’s connections to the book. Finally, students were able to share their main takeaways from the book in a graphic organizer.

On St. Patrick’s Day, all the teachers were away learning about the new Social Studies curriculum at the Area office. While we were away, the students worked on a number of fun, Saint-Patrick’s-Day-themed activities including Mini Booklets with math, riddles, roll-a-story and more. A highlight for students was using actual cereal for the Lucky Charms Graph activity!

 

At Home Learning
During the break, try to keep working on addition by using cards or games. We will be starting subtraction after the break. Also, reading a little every day helps to build decoding and vocabulary skills.
