Room 3 Sledding Day

On Thursday February 20 our class will go sledding in the community. Please send your child in full winter gear this day! If your child has a toboggan that you would be comfortable with them bringing to class this day, please send it with them and we will ensure it is sent home at the end of the day.

This Week in Room 3

In Math, we finished up our unit on Shapes.  We began a new unit on Data and Graphing. We began by looking at using a Pictograph to organize data. We asked everyone in our class what was our favourite animal between bird, dog, cat and hamster and put it in a graph.

In Literacy, we did targeted Word Work, practicing our reading and writing skills. We continued to learn parts of speech by looking at what a verb is and what examples of verbs are. We practiced identifying the types of verbs that different animals would do. We had a lot of fun coming up with these ideas as a class and practicing on our own. We also did some weekend writing and practiced adding in EXTRA details to make our writing more interesting.

In Art, we worked on new Self-Portraits for the month of February and did some guided drawing.

In the Gym we continued practicing our hockey skills, went on a winter walk and did some EZ rolling. 

The students were excited to par-take in Student Choice Club day on Friday. All of our students visited new classrooms with new teachers and a variety of new peers from different grades. They all came back very excited about what they had done!

As always, if you have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to connect with me via email.
