Monday, Jan. 23, 2017

*Starting this Thursday, Ms. Bain will have a new blog.  There have been issues with parents being unable to receive blog messages via email, so I am hoping that by creating a new blog this problem will be solved.  If you would like to receive blog messages through email, please sign-up on the new blog on Thursday.


Highlights

In Social Studies, we learned about Arctic Foxes.  We practiced using the “Knew/New” strategy.  Good readers recognize when they already know certain facts (e.g., Arctic Foxes are animals) and they also pay attention to new facts learned (e.g., Arctic Foxes hunt alone).

During math, we worked with ten sticks and ones to make numbers.  For example, 14 is 1 ten stick and 4 ones.

Tomorrow Mrs. Gibson will come back to work with us on peer coaching.  We are learning to help our classmates use their reading strategies to figure out unknown words, instead of telling them the word right away. 

We are also starting Mission Impossible in gym on Tuesday.

Important Information

On Feb. 6 we will be making clay animals with Clay for Kids from 12:40-2:40 pm.  We are looking for 1 or 2 parent volunteers with security clearances to help with this activity.  If you are interested in helping, please email Ms. Bain at lcbain@cbe.ab.ca before Jan. 31.
