I'm really glad to be able to get back to blogging. I've missed doing my weekly updates of what's going on! I'll do a brief update on where we are in most subjects and I've added a few photos from earlier this fall.
In reading, we have been focusing on comprehension. In guided groups, the students are reading short paragraphs and answering questions by finding/underlining the information in the texts. In writing, we have looked at several genres of writing. Most have completed "Le message du jour" and " Les devinettes" and are now working on " Le schéma". We have also been practising weekly spelling lists and sentences. For our shared readings, we read short stories based on sounds/spelling patterns and complete comprehension questions. Every few weeks, we read a book from the "Le loup qui..." series and complete follow-up activities. This week it was "Le loup qui fêtait son anniversaire".

In Math, we have finished up units on numerical and non-numerical patterning and representing numbers to 1000. This week we started a new unit on data management. We also have been doing activities on our number of the day and activities from all 5 math strands in "Les mathématiques pour tous les jours".

In Science, we are coming to the end of our unit on growth and change in plants. This week we learned about the food chain.
In Social Studies, we have been learning about the types of communities in Ontario and started some mapping activities. This week we started a group enquiry project where the students will make their own maps of an urban community after a whole class lesson on what should be included and why.
