Congratulations to Makaylah, who was the 1-2E Student of the Week!
This afternoon, the Grade 2s had a visitor from the Albeta Science Network. Tara is an engineer and brought her knowledge on boats and buoyancy to share with our students.
The Grade 1s were hard at work creating toy using a variety of materials. Their all time favourite was the opportunity to create a fidget spinner using Kinex!
In Math, we explored the concept of Mass, by weighing objects found around our classroom.
We had the pleasure of getting a sneak peak at the Grade 4 drama presentation of Life of a Kid. Congratulations to the Grade 4s on a job well done! Be sure to check out the opening night performance, which will take place June 12 at 6:00, in the RBES Meeting Place.
Hands on exploration is awesome! Or in today's case - bodies on. In Math, we used our bodies as the unit of measure to measure a few large spaces. Can you believe that our classroom is 7 1/2 Makaylah's long?! The hallway is 40 1-2E Students Long and the entrance way to the school is 31 1-2E Students long!
We also explored how to measure around objects by using a measurement string and clip.
In gym, we have been working on our trowing and catching skills using a fun summer object - the FRISBEE!! Today we used these skills in a game of Ultimate Frisbee. Ask your child to teach you how to play, it is sure to be a summer hit!
We had an amazing day at the BGRS Track Meet today! Congratulations to all of the 1-2E Athletes on your effort and accomplishments; you made me proud today!
Reminder that tomorrow is Early Dismissal.
We are measuring maniacs in 1-2E! The Grade 1s estimated and measured inchworms today using a variety of units. The Grade2s estimated and measured a variety of objects around the room using multiple units. Then they evaluated and compared the results of each.
Weekly reminders:
- Tuesday is Track and Field - please see your email for detailed information
- Wednesday is Early Dismissal
- Friday, the Grade 2s will be attending a free in-school field trip on Boats and Buoyancy put on by the Alberta Science Network -Scientist and Engineers.
Congratulations to Titus, who was the 1-2E Student of the Week.
