Weekly Centres
The Letter X
We started off the year with the letter "X", combining two big lines with one big letter.
Holiday Highlight
Everybody drew a picture of their Holiday Highlight, sharing one important, fun or interesting thing that happened over the holidays. We heard about birthdays, presents, playing in the park and people without power!
Winter Tree
With a different colour palate, we "repeated" our autumn tree activity, this time making winter trees, looking through our nearby windows to see what differences we could see.
Most, Least & Equal Cubes
Mr. McCullough gave everybody a bag of cubes. We had to figure out which colour we had the most of, which we had the least of, and which two colours we had equal amounts of. Then, we coloured some squares that matched the words on a piece of paper so we could show what we know.
Other Things We Did
We had a big talk about all the fun things we did over our break!
We talked about how equal doesn't mean same. Our daily math question helped with this, as Mr. McCullough would put up groups of shapes, asking us which groups were equal. We learned that equal refers to the number that are the same, not if something is the same colour, or same shape, or same size... although sometimes it can!
Our Drama Centre has been redone as a Hospital, and we had lots of people acting out slip-and-fall injuries!
