Today is the 100th Day of school!  We started by making a 100th day headband.  We had our Pillars of Care assembly.  Congratulations to this months winners.  They are:

Care for Others: Roaa: for noticing that someone left their sweater in the gym and bringing it to them.

Care for Learning: Lea: for working hard on her letters and sounds!

Care for Place: Michael: for helping to keep our classroom clean by volunteering to sweep and by picking things up off the floor, even when they are not his.

Care for Self: Seraphina: for working hard on her basic facts to help her with math.

Pillar of the Month:  Jessica: for always being kind to everyone, no matter who they are.


We had a fire drill today. We did 100 exercises in gym. We did calendar and we practiced counting to 100. We started working on some 100th day activities. They are: writing numbers to 100, making a name quit using a 100 chart, making a 100 collection book and making a paper chain with 100 links. We will continue these activities on Monday. We had our word review. I did not have time to mark the reviews. I will return them on Monday.


Yesterday we started with quiet reading.  We did calendar and we practiced counting in different ways.  We did literacy centers.  We did a "making words" activity.  We started with the letters a, i, i, o, d, d, n, t.  We made 2, 3, and 4 letter words with the letters.  Then we worked to figure out the "secret word" that uses all the letters.  We did mindfulness and we changed our home reading books.  We had gym.  We were very excited to go outside for recess!  We started a 100th day activity.  We used an age enhancing app to make us look 100 years old.  We wrote about what we will be able to do when we are 100 and what we won't be able to do. We practiced our colour poem.

 Yesterday we started with quiet reading.  We changed our library books.  We did calendar and we practiced adding and subtracting.  We learned about the letter W.  We talked about the sound it makes and we brainstormed words that start with W.  We practiced printing it on our whiteboards and in our printing books.  We drew and labelled pictures that start with W and some of us wrote sentences that have W words in it. We did mindfulness and we practiced our sounds.  In math we worked on the number 12.  We talked about different ways to represent 12 including making addition sentences.  We did a listening game in Science.  We listened to different sounds and tried to identify them.

 Yesterday we started by watching a Alphablocks video.  We did calendar and we practiced drawing shapes.  We counted the sides and vertices of the shapes.  We did literacy centers.  We had indoor recess since it was so cold outside.  We learned about the letter C.  We talked about the 2 sounds it makes and we brainstormed words that begin with C.  We practiced printing it on our whiteboards and in our printing books.  We drew and labelled pictures and some of us wrote sentences with C words in them.  After lunch we finished our C work.  We played floor hockey in gym and we had another indoor recess.  We wrote our numbers as high as we can go (or filled in missing numbers if we can write our numbers correctly to 100).  We did Mathletics and Raz Kids on the iPads.
