Good evening,

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

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

Phonics: Today, the students completed an activity to differentiate between the Long “Ee/Ea” sound and the Short “E/e” sound.

Lunch/ Recess 1

Math: Today students reviewed sorting, classifying, graphs, tally marks, and probability. Students are recalling that they start filling in the graph at the bottom, and how to determine which choice is more or less popular. If additional information is collected, students are able to describe how this changes the graph. Students practiced completing their math independently, in order to prepare for the test tomorrow.

Science: We put the finishing touches on our Science Fair Project. Stay tuned for more pictures of the final product tomorrow!

Taking Action

Action is a very significant aspect of the IB learning process. In the PYP Program, students will engage in 6 Unit of Inquiries (UOI) throughout the school year, with each unit being approximately 6 weeks long. During each UOI, 3 students from the class will be assigned as the “Action Stars”, which means that they are encouraged to use what has been learned and apply it to the “real world.” The purpose of this initiative is to help further knowledge about what has been learned within the classroom. Example: If we are learning about recycling, students might go home and tell you that they want to implement a recycling program with you at home, or they may do something simple like telling you that something you were throwing in the garbage may be recycled. Students who are not assigned this role for the current UOI being taught are still encouraged to show ACTION! Action comes in many forms; it might be something small to something very large, but as long as the children understand the concepts, action is important no matter the size! Please check out our Action board in our classroom to see all our fabulous learners.
