Jump Rope for Heart and Track and Field Packed Into a Short Week

We had a great start to our week with Jump Rope for Heart on Monday!


In Language, we read "Sophie la photographe" for our shared reading. We continued to work on grammar activities, learning about "l'impĂ©ratif" and looking at types of words. 


In Math, we began our name projects on area, perimeter, and fractions. They students are also continuing to finish up their other activities on multiplication, division, and measurement. 






In Science, we watched a video about soil. We then looked at what soil is is composed of. We also planted seeds as a connection to our plant unit from the fall. Each student picked a type of seed to grow: tomatoes, carrots, beans, peas, or wildflowers. 






In Social Studies, students finished up their maps of the origins of the pioneers. They then completed some activities about the text they had read. 



In preparation of next week's EQAO, we reorganized the class so that each student is now sitting alone. I miss the space we had when desks were grouped so this arrangement won't last long. EQAO will take place next Thursday, Friday, and the following Monday. Please ensure your child arrives on time each of those days. 


Yesterday was our school Track and Field Day. We were lucky and it only rained during the second nutrition break. We got to complete all events. 

I hope everyone has a great long weekend!
