Here is how today is supposed to go:
Period 1 -Red light, read aloud, Reader's workshop - we continued to work on visualization. I read short passages and they sketched what they saw.
Period 2 was Student choice - lots of different games going on.
Period 3 we stayed outside for a bit, then came in and worked a little bit on our 9's times tables a bit more.
Period 4 is music.
Period 5 and 6 is Secret of NIMH movie and popcorn!
Sorry I missed yesterdays post...I had to leave early for a workshop.
Here is the plan for today.
Period 1 -Red light, read aloud, finish up some math (5's and 10s times tables).
Period 2 - I'm hoping we can finish up our funny fairy tales using there, their and they're.
Period 3 -Science / Social studies. Grade 2's to Raspopov/Smeaton. Grade 3's will stay here and work on their spinning tops.
Period 4 is Math. We'll work on our 9 times tables...lots of tricks for this one.
Period 5 is buddies with Mrs. Ever's class. We'll continue to work on our 'Day at the Zoo' slideshows.
Period 6 is supposed to be gym, but I think Mr. D is away...so we might enjoy a little free time.
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1-Red light, read aloud, squiggly story.
Period 2 -French, Woolley.
Period 3 -We'll learn all about the 5's and 10's times tables...they're easy ones!
Period 4-we'll use that knowledge to answer some questions on Math Prodigy.
Period 5 and 6 the Grade 2's are off to Raspopov and Smeaton, the Grade 3's will stay put, and work on both their 'city research' and 'spinning top/STEM' activities.
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 -Red light, Read aloud, Weekend Round Up.
Period 2 -Writer's workshop- continue on working on email etiquette.
Period 3 -Music Mrs. Haynes.
Period 4 - Math - we'll play our 8 times tables board games in class.
Period 5 -we'll stay outside for a little bit, then come in and answer some multiplication questions on Math Prodigy.
Period 6 we'll head to the library for book exchange.
Sorry to all my faithful reader (that's right, singular, because I am not entirely sure anyone reads this)!
I forgot my phone the other day, and consequently, I've been locked out of everything...I need face ID to get into everything!
I'm back now...with my phone in hand.
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 Red light, read aloud, reader's/writer's workshop...student choice.
Period 2 we'll use the chromebooks and will explore Gmail, and proper email/digital etiquette. We'll practice writing kindness emails to partners in the class.
Period 3 is math. We'll for fun, learn the 8 time table (even though we don't need to...but we'll just double our 4's) and we'll create our own 8 times table board games.
Period 4 is Music with Mrs. Haynes.
Period 5 and 6 is art...we'll be designing our own hearts with warm and cool colours....Hopefully they'll look something like this:
What a wild break....the snow day, Pd day, weekend and family day....5 days off!
When we come back, Valentines, Report Cards and Pancake day! Wild and exciting....
Here is the plan...
Period 1 -Red light, Valentines hand out and pancakes.
Period 2 I tried to read to the class but they were far too interested in their Valentines to listen.
Period 3 is Math...we might go outside for a little to play...we'll see what the temperature is like. But math we will continue to look at Arrays.
Period 4 is Music with Mrs. Haynes.
Period 5 we're going to play a mystery student game....try to build some more community.
Period 6 is free time!
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 -Red light, read aloud, Reader's workshop - a powerful lesson on inferring...turns out we all can do it!
Period 2 is writer's workshop. We'll focus on 'showing not telling'. I'll put them in pairs and have them rewrite boring sentences into something more vivid....example: I was scared.
→ My hands trembled, and my heart pounded like a drum. I held my breath as the shadow crept closer.
Period 3 we'll play outside for a little extra time, then we'll do some more 'Array' math work.
Period 4 I have some paper work and computer work they can do on arrays.
Period 5 is health with Mr. D.
Period 6 we have Will and Jim coming in to help me out with guitar. If everything goes according to plan, we'll learn the D chord today..
REMINDER....put your pj's on backwards, spoons under pillows and ice cubes in the toilet tonight...let's hope for a snow day!
