Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 we'll do a weekend round up share.
Period 2 we'll have reader's/writer's workshop, student choice.
Period 3 is gym with Mr. D
Period 4 is math, we'll look at different ways to sort data, by attributes and in carroll diagrams.
Period 5 and 6 we'll use the chromebooks to play a blooket on the Tale of Desperaux and then do some coding on Code.org.
Fingers crossed me have a few more students this week!
Wow...we are seriously short handed today. Missing 8 kids. Something is making it's way through our classroom.
Here is the plan for today.
Period 1 we shared some cool photos from Reid and Zak. Pictures of their great-grandparents. We discussed Remembrance day, and why we wear the poppy. Then I read a couple of chapters of The Tale of Desperaux.
Period 2 was spent doing reader's/writer's workshop. Student choice.
Period 3 and 4 we'll finish our Class novel, then begin the Movie, The Tale of Desperaux.
Period 5 is Gym with Mr. D.
Period 6 we'll finish up the movie and any unfinished work we may have (e.g., poppy art, kandinsky circles). Any extra time will be free time.
Have a terrific (hopefully healthy) weekend.
I was away yesterday...but I'm back today.
Here is the plan for the day.
Period 1 and 2 we did a math brain teaser about ice-cream to start the day. Then we read "I Wanna Iguana" and talked about persuasive writing. Then we tried our own persuasive writing. The rest of the time we had for reading or writing.
Period 3 is math. We'll look at different ways to sort objects (using 2 or more attributes).
Period 4 is music.
Period 5 and 6 is Art. We are going to work on some Remembrance day art using water colours. I got the idea from this website:

Crazy days...
Here is the plan for our 'normal' day.
Period 1 - Music with Mrs. Haynes
Period 2 is Weekend Round Up. Reader's Workshop. Mini lesson focusing on 'thinking while you read'.
Period 3 we'll stay outside with some of the other Grade 3's for a bit. Then we'll come in and do math. We'll look at how a table of values can be used to help you solve patterns.
Period 4 we'll use the chromebooks to log into Epic Reading (I was getting ready for virtual...thought I would show them just in case this happens again).
Period 5 is writer's workshop. We'll look at 'writing to change the world'...finding topic that matter to us.
Period 6 is social studies. Hopefully most people brought back their white duo tangs and we can begin learning about living and working in Ontario!
Here is the plan for today...
Period 1 we're going to do some social studies to start the day. We'll look at Canada, the provinces and territories. Then we'll look at the different landforms and the way we use the land in Ontario.
Period 2 we'll have reader's/writer's workshop. They will get to work with partners.
Period 3 Mrs. Pinnington will come into cover my class and take them outside.
Period 4 we'll do some more work with growing and shrinking patterns.
Period 5 is gym/health with Mr. D.
Period 6 is left open for finish up Friday (art, math, social studies).
Note...next week is still up in the air. Please be patient while we figure this all out (online and in person teaching/learning).
Have a good weekend.
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 -reader's workshop- mini lesson is on how reader's use many strategies to solve words.
Period 2 is writer's workshop -we're going to review using our senses again to inspire writing.
Period 3 is math. We'll do an Esti-mystery then do some work with growing and shrinking patterns.
Period 4 is music with Mrs. Haynes.
Period 5 and 6 is art. We'll look at the artist Wassily Kandinsky and try to use pastels to create some concentric circles in his style.
I was away on Friday, and yesterday was...well...Halloween, and busy. Sorry for the lack of posts.
Here is plan today (the come down after Halloween).
Period 1 is music with Mrs. Haynes.
Period 2 is seating swap and Reader's workshop. The focus is on 'try, try again' to solve unfamiliar words.
Period 3 and 4 is math. We'll look a little more closely at both growing and shrinking patterns. After our work, we'll answer some more patterning questions on Prodigy.
Period 5 is Writer's workshop. Our mini lesson will focus on 'observing closely' (using our senses) to help us write.
Period 6 I'm leaving open as a finish up /candy crash period.
