Pictures to come soon!
Weekly Centres
Train Station
Our drama station was turned into a train station, complete with a working train, a conductor's microphone, a ticket counter, a snack stand and a waiting area!
Plastecine Shapes
We kept working with 3D shapes this week, this time using only pieces of plastecine to create spheres, cylinders, cones, cubes and prisms! We then matched the shapes up with a pre-made model.
Sunflowers
With paper plates, glue, crayons and goldenrod paper, we created sunflowers to put up in our window.
Worm Facts
Using non-fiction fact books, we drew pictures of worms and then wrote what we knew about worms underneath. Everybody wrote their own words!
Writing To A Friend
Using Handwriting Without Tears style tracing sheets, we each took a paper with a classmate's name on it, wrote their name, and then drew a picture for them that we thought they'd like. We then gave them their name and the picture!
Song of the Week
In Our Garden
Other Things We Did
After working with the number 5 in a whole bunch of ways, we all showed Mr. McCullough a different way to represent five then we did a few weeks ago. We had groups of fives, drawings of five, shapes with five sides, addition statements and the actual number five!
We kept working on the idea of Fiction vs Non-Fiction so we knew what books to pick (and which ones not to pick) while we were doing our worm writing. We did this by playing a movement game where we had to make lines behind Fiction or Non-Fiction books.
We kept adding missing letters to our daily message! Where are those letters going?
A magician came to the school on Thursday afternoon and showed us some amazing tricks with cards, rings, paper bags and bouncing rubber balls!
Our Reading Buddies helped us out on Friday afternoon for our Community Clean-Up! With rubber gloves and instructions in hand, we cleaned up a large area of the Jackman schoolyard!
