Our Learning:
We made books about our animals and mine was a porcupine. The last page we finished was adaptation and each day we had to do a page. ~Armaan Our animal research books took so much effort, so much colouring and so much detail but I liked it. ~Hooria We did our books and Maku and me did a Bald Eagle. Maku drew a river with trees and that's where that comes from. ~Joshua Mrs. Alm gave math sheets. ~Iman We did animal research but we didn't finish it because on Monday we're going to do a pop-out. Mine was a moose. ~Malcolm When we were with our buddies they showed us was adaptation was and then we wrote it down. Hummingbirds adaptation is they can hum with their wings. ~Maddie When we did animal research we had to do predator, habitat, adaptation, diet. ~Madison We watched a video about animals and there's different kinds of animals. ~Anna And there's also different kinds of animals that you don't know about. ~Charleigh

We did math. ~Iman We did art. ~Charleigh And we made them for the Volunteer Tea. ~Amina The art was a dandelion. ~Maddie We sing in front of our parents at the Volunteer Tea. ~Anna We are going to do some research with our buddies. ~Malcolm In Science, we did some animals and our first animal was a giraffe. ~Malcolm We planted seeds and mine is already growing. ~Makayla All the plants are growing. ~Wyatt There was a guest who did magic. ~Maku When he put our words on a book, it wrote magically. Then he told us a story. ~Nicolas He was a writer and he writes cool words and he told us 3 stories. ~Malcolm A person came and talked to us about different seeds. ~Marshall She showed us how sticky 3 seeds were. ~Maddie We learned about the needs of plants. ~Prince Our Learning:
We planted corn and pumpkins. ~Dexten This week we are learning about how we plant plants. ~Amina This week the seed changed. The leaves came out and it was really cool. ~Maddie We planted another seed which was an apple seed. Since this day the seed hasn't been growing yet. ~Hooria We have been planting a lot of different kids of seeds. Kidney bean, apple seed and we're trying to plant a cherry seed and an avocado seed. ~Armaan We planted 3 types of seeds. Corn is growing tall. ~Wyatt We did so much math that we're going to bring math home. We had to figure out with a number line. ~Lana Our seed grew really long. It has a stem and it has some leaves. ~Nicolas We planted an apple seed but it's tiny. ~Tathya We did some research on plants and animals and then we wrote and drew about it. ~Marshall Next Week: - No school on Monday - We didn't get to our word family challenge on Thursday so we'll have it next week instead. - We will begin animal research! - Volunteer Tea on Friday from 10:00 - 11:00 - In math we will continue adding and subtracting within 20, mental math skills (doubles, near doubles such as 5+6, fact families such as 6+2=8 so 8-2=6, recalling basic facts quickly), and word problems. - Please remember to continue practicing sight words and reading fluency by rereading home reading books many times to add speed and expression! Our Learning:
In math we did number lines. ~Hooria This morning we went to an assembly and there were three winners and I was one of them. ~Maddie We started a new unit about plants and it's really fun. I like plants because they give you oxygen. Trees give you oxygen. ~Makayla We made Mother's Day pictures and we made Mother's Day books. ~Charleigh We did buddies and we went to the library and we did math in it. ~Tathya We planted a plant and it's been 8 days. ~Lana We made those pictures. ~Iman We had a walk with Miss Julie and she showed us how much plants and animals are in the garden. ~Malcolm On the community walk we went into this forest and explored and found lots of cool things like branches and catkins. We learned about a lot of things. ~Madison My buddy won the Go Pro. ~Dexten We've been working so hard on our oral stories that we made pictures on the wall of our oral story character. There's little stories on the wall that tell in the beginning, middle, end. ~Armaan On our community walk we learned that pine cones have seeds in them which are really small and you don't see. ~Amina We have a new person in our school and it's a hawk and he loves dancing. ~Ali Our Learning:
We made our own stories. ~Dexten We told our stories to Ms. Bakker/Li's class. ~Dany We did some math. ~Iman We did math when we have to write a challenge and the time we did it. ~Lana In Science we planted 2 seeds and they're going to grow really fast. Right now there is a lot of water in one of the seeds. ~Maddie I read about the turtle. ~Harrison In math, we learned about doubles like 2+2, 4+4, 8+8 and some people know them very well but some people need more practice. ~Malcolm Mrs. Alm gave us seedlings to grow in our garden. ~Marshall We're doing a new unit and it's about plants and living things. ~Amina We talked about what flowers need. ~Saavan We put the desks like a horseshoe table because we can show people our stories. ~Anna In math, we did word problems. ~Ali In math we learned about doubles +1. A lot of people need practice with doubles +1. ~Malcolm In Science, we drew a picture of a flower and I think it's Mrs. Alm's favourite kind of flower. ~Maddie Next Week: *We will continue learning strategies to help us with addition and subtraction. Please help your child practice doubles if he/she doesn't know them yet. This knowledge will help them so much with mental math. If I know that 6+6=12 then I know that 6+7=13 because IT'S JUST ONE MORE! :) *We'll get back to work families this week. Watch for the brainstorming sheet to be sent home on Monday. Please return completed sheets on Friday. Have your child read the words all week to practice fluency. *Thank you to those families who are reading home reading books with their children at home. Exchange is every Wednesday. Re-reading promotes fluency! *We missed our community walk last week but we'll definitely be out visiting Hawkwood Community Garden and ravine on Thursday. Please ensure your child is dressed for the weather on Thursday and everyday! *Book orders are due on Tuesday. *Music Monday is on Monday! *Hawkwood Family Math Night is on Thursday evening from 6:30 - 8:00. We hope to see you there! |
