Hi Parents,
A short but busy week!
This week is writing we finished off the good copies of our dragon writing and did free write through literacy centers. We also continued to work on our reading and writing skills through other literacy centers.
Our words of the week this week were: must, next, only, very
Our words of the week next week are: other, their, where, would
In math this week we continued to work on subtracting. We used cards to help us write subtraction number sentences and solve subtraction problems. We also practiced choosing the right strategy for us to solve subtraction questions. Some of us like to use a number line, some of us like to use a 100's chart and some of us like to count back in our head. We also continued to play math games to help us practice our subtraction skills, including Subtraction Bingo, which we played with our grade 2 buddies.
This week in science we finished our building unit by building our very own house. This time we got to work independently. We again had to make a plan before we started and used recycled materials to make our houses.
In art this week we made our dragons into puppets to go along with our dragon writing.
We have really been enjoying our new read aloud "Zac Power: Thrill Ride".
