This morning we had our first library class with Mrs. Rogers. Tuesday will be library day and Mrs. Rogers allowed each student to take home one book today. Please ensure your child returns his/her book prior to Tuesday, so that a new book can be signed out next week.
We learned another math game today, War. Students are excited to share this game with you tonight. All you need is one deck of cards and two willing participants. Have fun!
We also launched Daily 5 today by discussing the carpet bell. Students chose 5 books for their bags and began Read to Self. It was amazing to watch as they achieved 3 minutes of on task reading, we are excited to build more stamina as the week goes along.
Our day ended with a lesson on sorting. Ask your child what it means to sort (place the similar items together). I encourage you to have your child sort objects at home by various attributes (colour, shape, size, type, etc). This concept the foundation for the Patterns and Relations unit in both grades.
