Day 140

Good evening,

Morning Assembly: This morning we recognized our monthly award winners. Congratulations to Ahaan who received the Balanced Learner Profile Award in our class.


Music: Please see Ms. Hayward’s blog for more information.

Calendar: Today’s calendar was led by Diyya. Great job Diyya!



French: Please see Mlle Jessica’s blog for more information.

Phonics: Today, students were introduced to the “Oi/oi” sound, letters, and song. Students watched a video called “Geraldine learns the /oi/ sound.” After this, students brainstormed a list of words that contain the “Oi/oi” sound.




Lunch/ Recess 1

Arts Night Rehearsal: Students had their first rehearsal for their Arts Night Performance. Students will receive information this week about costumes, as well as the soundtrack for their song so they can also be practicing at home.

Math: Today, students were introduced to measuring capacity. Students discussed how the tallest container cannot always hold the greatest volume. Students compared different containers and determined which one could hold more in each case. Students also selected which different containers could hold about the same amount (even though they were different shapes).





Unit of Inquiry: Today, students measured the height of our classroom plants. Students were excited to see how our plants have grown, and considered what factors we could change to support their growth. This included the amount of water, as well as the best position to receive sunlight.
