Tuesday, December 1, 2015

Today was a good, hard working day.

We started off the morning with Daily 5 and practice our 50 word wall words again by doing the tasks cards. Only 2 more days until the big quiz, so make sure to practice, practice, practice!

In Phys Ed we started doing some dancing. We warmed up with some freeze dance. Then we learned the Chicken Dance. Tomorrow we will be learning a new dance! Let me know you some of my moves.

Following Phys Ed, Mrs. Cokar was with us again. She read a story to us.

After recess we used our library time to look around the book fair items. We wrote down on a piece of paper all the books we would like to have one day. Some of us are bringing the list home today to show you. We can bring money tomorrow to buy books or wait to buy them when we come see Mrs. G on Thursday or Friday.

To start the afternoon, we read to ourselves as a cool down from lunch. Then we went into some social studies. In our visual journals, we kind of made a map of our community of Calgary. First, we brainstormed everything we knew about the parklands region of Alberta. Why the parklands? because that is what region Calgary is in! Then we drew a small picture of Calgary in the middle of the page, and a bunch of smaller pictures, with labels, around the city that represent the parklands.

As the day came to an end, we did ketchups. Some worked continued working on the page about Ivan, from our novel study, some worked on the Healthy Alphabet sheet we started yesterday, and those that got everything done had some free time.

Reminders:
-No School Friday
-Conference Thursday evening and Friday morning. Book a time online
-Book Fair on until Friday
