Hello families and friends,
Today we started off with our lead-up to our Daily 5 work; we did one round of 20 minutes where the students got to choose if they wanted to work on writing or independent reading, and then another round of 20 minutes where they worked on the other choice. As we continue getting better at this we will start adding other choices for them to work on into the routine. This is also time where I get to work with individual students or small groups on reading skills. After that we worked on representing numbers using four of the different ways that we have looked at so far this year: arrays; ten frames; tally marks; and pictures. In the afternoon we started with our calendar work. Then we read the book "The Vowel Family" by Sally M. Walker, and did the /o/ sound for our word work. After that we watched a video about the seasons. What kind of weather do we get in the winter here in Calgary? Post your answers in the comments below. Then we tried doing another snowflake using our fractal art skills. This one was quite a challenge for them.
Scholastic Book Orders have gone home. They are due back by next Friday, November 25th.
Next Thursday evening and Friday morning are Parent Teacher Interviews. Stay tuned for when registration for this goes live.
This Friday we will be having our second Friday Club Day.
Have a wonderful Wednesday,
Mr. Soulliere

In Calgary we get snow, rain, blizzards, chinooks and wind. Madison
