A very happy birthday to our friend Mikayla who turns 10 tomorrow!
This morning we practiced handwriting. We are focusing on how it makes us slow down and really think about how to keep our work neat and legible. Students can focus on continuing their research about their science topics over the weekend. They can do some internet research or talk to their families about possible survey questions they could ask the students at school related to their topic, in order to collect data to present as part of their sharing for the Celebration of Learning. In math, students looked at several other division questions. One question we focused on is writing a division fact to solve each equation: a) 24 children, 6 on a team, how many teams? b) 18 cookies, 9 on a plate, how many plates? c) 42 cans, 7 in each row, how many rows? c) Find all the ways of dividing 36 students into equal teams. After lunch we had our grade 2 buddies come for a visit. They practiced reading aloud to us and we helped them with any tricky words and encouraged them when they were stuck. We also helped support them as they learn how to use IRIS to enter goals and strategies for learning. Lastly, we are thinking deeply about legacies and have looked at the following website, found here, to discover some of the ways Canadians have left their legacies. Be good, be kind and play outside! Enjoy your long weekend. Reminders: Apr 14 ~ Good Friday (No School) Apr 17 ~ PD Day (No School) April 18 ~ Scholastic Book Order Due Apr 20 ~ Healthy Hunger (Taco Time Lunch) Apr 21 ~ Book Truck
