Today we began our day with an "Eye Opener" that had us look at data. Students had to answer questions that required them to add or subtract. Students also used the information to create a bar graph. In word work we learned about what a prefix is. A prefix is something that comes before a word to give it meaning. For example, some students gave suggestions such unwanted, unkind, pregame, non-biodegradable. We were outside to play a game of soccer today for gym. There was a competitive and recreational side. Students that were feeling confident in their skills were on the competitive side and those who felt less comfortable were on the recreational side. Students continued on our poems that were connected to our characters from the novel "Al Capone Does My Shirts". We helped our peers edit and wrote the good copies in our visual journals. Check out our wok in the slideshow below. In math we practiced division. We continue to recognize how fact families help us divide and how multiplication is connected to division. Your child needs to know their basic facts :) Our read aloud was very exciting today! We have read that Natalie's birthday is the day before her interview. Her family is nervous she will have a fit. Piper visits her and sets her off. She begins getting upset, tearing up her drawings. Moose takes her for a walk and she sets off to see the prisoner 105.... she has never followed her own path. As part of our legacy project we are writing scripts to help us prepare what to say for our presentations at the Celebration of Learning. These will be marked and sent home later this week. Reminders: May 9 - Kernels Popcorn Day May 10 - School Council Meeting May 19 - PD Day (No School) May 22 - Victoria Day (No School)
