Tuesday October 1

This week:

  • We continue to explore number and counting efficiently in Math through our "Masloppy" inquiry. Today we practiced subatizing and using ten frames. If you have a moment, please watch this video together and ask your child how they know what the number is:

  • Literacy
    • We have begun our literacy flex grouping. Ask your child who their teacher is for literacy and what they have done so far! If you would like to volunteer your time for our literacy block, please see the Sign Up Genius in your inbox. Please contact Ms. Craig if you have any questions.  
    • Home Reading is coming home today!!
      • The lunch supervisors have worked diligently for weeks to get this program up and running. Our recommendation is to read the books in the book bags as many times as you can. Eventually the words will come quicker, and the fluency should improve. We want to ensure our students are building their confidence as well as their reading abilities. 

  • Inquiry
    • Students continue to learn through the lens of a Praire Entomologist. Yesterday students learned how to annotate a non-fiction scientific article about Amazing Insects. Ask your child what they remember from that article. Who is an expert runner? Expert flyer? Expert swimmer? What new questions do they have after reading the article? 
    • Today students went on a Tour de Alberta! Through Google Earth, they explored specific Calgary and Alberta landmarks. Ask your child where they went today!
