Today we started with writing about our weekend in our journals and we changed our book bin books.  We did calendar.  We practiced our reading skills by reading to a partner. We had literacy centers and we did word work.  We have new word wall words. They are:

Group A: how, into, night, could, about ("night" has a word family)

Group B:baby, mother, people, nice, family, father ("nice" has a word family)

Group C: "dge" words - edge, bridge, fudge, ledge, fridge

Group D: today, here, him, he, are

After lunch we did mindfulness and we changed our home reading books.  We had gym.  We did a math sheet that had both addition and subtraction questions.  We could decide what strategy we would use to solve the problems.  We built some structures with our lego.  We built a bridge and then a house.  We did "museum walks" (walking around looking at what others are doing) to help us get ideas and solve problems.

Yesterday we started with quiet reading and we changed our library books.  We had music with Mr. Wiens.  We did calendar.  We started a plan so we can write a story.  We decided on characters, the setting, the problem and the solution.  We did mindfulness and we changed our home reading books.  We had gym.  We had literacy centers.  We started an experiment in science.  We put celery in a cup with food colouring.  We made a hypothesis about what we think will happen.   Today we started with quiet reading and catch up time.  We did calendar.  We had literacy centers.  We looked at what happened to our celery and wrote about it.  After lunch we did mindfulness and we changed our home reading books.  We had gym.  We did a survey before the drumming residency that the school is doing next week.  We did Mathletics and RazKids on the iPads.
