The 5th Day of School!

Hello, learning friends!

We had a great morning of learning in Room 208!

We started our day reading the book, As-tu rempli un seau aujourd'hui? before taking more time to work on our classroom belief charts. Mme Careen will now be compiling all of our ideas and we will use them as the starting point for writing our belief statements for our class this year.

We then moved on to a Tangrams challenge in Math. Working in randomized groups of 3, we were tasked with creating 3 different shapes using 7 shapes. It was not as easy as we thought!

Next, in Français, we started with "LALALA." What is that?! LALALA is a daily literacy activity that has students reading individually, with a partner and in a group with a teacher (Mme Careen). This will be done for 10 minutes at the beginning of every Français class. We started today with "Lecture Autonome" (reading individually) and will introduce the next "La" - Lecture Avec Partenaire (reading with a partner) - early next week.

We ended our morning with a sort-of Science activity; we created lists of items based on a specific colour assigned to our group and then, based on all of the items written on the board, we worked to re-sort the items into a different set of groups based on common criterium. We will be completing different versions of sorting activities over the coming weeks as we move into the classification outcomes of our Diversity of Living Things unit.

Great work today, everyone! :)
