Agenda 10_26_2010Hello everyone.  Today in Language Arts we "played" a game called Writing Ideas Bingo.  Everyone had to fill in their card with different sentence stems to later help them build those stems into a story.  When each student filled in their card they could shout Bingo.  Their Free Space was later filled in with other students ideas or an extra idea they had of their own.  Now we have at least nine different topics that we can write about.  In Math class we are learning about place value and had a chance to work with math tiles to show different numbers and where their proper place is on a place value chart.  We had a lot of fun today in Phys. Ed. working with the parachute and then we were off to writing class with Mrs. MacIsaac.  Do not forget that we have no school on Wednesday! Have a good night boys and girls and enjoy your day off!

  We worked on our detail webs in writing today, and practiced turning those details into a story.  In math today we introduced an open number line and worked on placing numbers between 1 - 100.   In the afternoon we practiced our remembrance day songs with Mrs. McCarthy in Music, and writing with Mrs. MacIssac.  Remember to study your words tomorrow for our spelling test.  Have a good night and get lots of rest!

This was a skip counting game we played today.  It took us a long time to get to 20, but we will keep playing for fun!  Its harder than it sounds!  Do you notice any patterns?

 Hello everyone!  It was another beautiful day outside today!  We can not believe that it is almost November and the weather is still great! It is quite windy though so we still have to wear our coats outside, ( and maybe a hat as well).  We are still learnig all the components of Read to Someone.  Today we learned how to pick our partner properly.  Girls and boys, tell your family what do we do if someone asks us to be our partner? In Math class we tried a skip sounting game.  Do not forget that it is Hot Lunch day tomorrow and the Home and School will be serving us Ed Sub's. Check homework folders for the message that went home today rearding some important reminders .  Have a great night all!  See you in the morning boys and girls!

Hello everyone.  What a windy day it is out there!  We had a special guest come in today to see how Miss Gallant is doing with her teaching skills.  Her name was Mrs. Jonas.  We were all very well behaved and Miss Gallant did well also!  Today in Language Arts we worked on building muscle in our stories and we als learned three different ways you can Read to Someone.  Boys and girls, do you remember the three ways you can read to someone? (Check for Understanding, I read You read and, Read two different books).  Talk to your family about the three ways. We made masks in Art class today they were awesome! Stay tuned for a picture of all us wearing our masks!  Have a good night girls and boys, get lots of sleep!

  Remember to wear green tomorrow for the Heritage Fair at Croft.  In math we worked on our counting on strategy, digits, and a bit on place value (tens value and ones value).   In language arts we worked on adding details to our sentences and stories (adding some muscle)!   In music we started practicing our songs for remembrance day.  We started a new chapter book, Cabin Creek Mysteries : The secret of the Robbers Cave.  Do you remember how the boys got to Lost Island and who they brought with them?  See you tomorrow for our Heritage Fair Adventure!  I'm going to wear a warm hat so my head doesn't cold!

  A very busy day for my first day back.  The Interim reports are in the blue folders.  Our first homework sheet for October is in the green books.  In math today we took our first look at a place value chart and explored the difference between a digit and number.  All numbers are made up of digits.  Do remember how many digits there are? (Look at a phone if your having trouble).  In language arts we worked on our buddy reading and reviewed Narratives and Biographies.  Remember Friday is the Heritage Fair, so our spelling test will be on Monday.  Have a great night and get lots of sleep.
