October 24th

It's only period 2...but that's my only time to blog, so here we go.

Period 1 - For red light we came up with as many creative ways as we can to make questions with the answer equalling 100 (e.g., 110- 10 = 100).  Then we read from The One And Only Ivan.  We learned a little about Ivan growing up as a 'human'.  Then we had some independent reading/guided reading.

Period 2 is Social studies with Mrs. Smith.

Period 3 We're going to do writer's workshop.  Today's mini lesson will focus on using proper ending punctuation.

Period 4 we're going to go through some of our favourite centres from our subtraction-centres from last week.

Period 5 and 6 I'm going to do a little growth mindset activity with the kids.  Then we'll do art.  I had originally planned on looking at Henri Mattise today, but after reading the One And Only Ivan, I think I'm going to change and focus on 'still-life' drawing (mentioned in the book).

I'll show the kids this video on technique, and we'll have a go!

Please take a look at yesterday's 'Holiday Market Place' post!
