This morning we started with quiet centers and then we worked on our Rosehip facts. The grade 1's needed to try to get 3 facts and the grade 2's needed to try to get 5 facts. Tomorrow will be our last day to finish this job. Ask me if I was able to finish today and which facts I chose to write.
After recess the grade 1's did printing and the grade 2's did booktime. Today's letter was "W". Then we did our math centers. Before our centers we talked about the way shapes are named. We learned the difference between a prism and a pyramid. We learned that at all the sides connect to make one point (or vertex) in a pyramid and in a prism there are two flat bases instead. Today our blog group was working on the pattern blocks center.
After lunch, read a story and then we continued working on our great students project. Today's step was to trace our hands and cut them out. These will be used as our place to write our great student ideas.
In gym we continued training for the Terry Fox Run. Today we ran 3 laps. We are getting faster!
In music we played name games and did some dancing. Mr. O'Reilly played the drum for us.
