![]() Today we had our 'min' teacher for the day, Kamryn, take the reins :) It was lots of fun and maybe a bit more work than our teacher expected. We began by solving a secret message. Each letter of the alphabet was assigned a number. Ask your child what the secret message said. Students also wrote letters to the teacher or to friends. We worked on how letters are formatted and how each different topic should be included in a separate paragraph. In honour of Earth Day tomorrow (April 22, 2017) we looked at some poetry that inspired a piece of art that we are creating. We began by 'painting' the background of our visual journal page with tea. Then next week we will be drawing the earth and writing a poem around our earth talking about caring for the planet. Math reviews were sent home. Overall students did quite well. Take a look at where your child and look for where their areas for growth are. Please also continue to practice basic facts with your child regularly. We also played "Spin and Colour" in math. Students had to spin to find two different factors that had to be multiplied together. The product was a square on their bingo sheet. Partners took turns and the first student to get three squares in a row won. Reminders: May 10 - School Council Meeting May 19 - PD Day (No School) May 22 - Victoria Day (No School)
