Welcome back to a snowy Monday...
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 -Red light, Read aloud, Weekend Round Up, Squiggly Story.
Period 2 -continue working on Choose Your Own Adventure stories...
Period 3 -music with Mrs. Haynes.
Period 4 - Math...next strategy is using base-ten blocks: Addition Math Strategies.pdf
Period 5 - We'll use the chromebooks to answer some base ten adding questions on Math prodigy.
Period 6 is Library / book exchange.
Here is the plan for today.
Period 1-Red light, read aloud, reader's/writer's workshop...with a friend.
Period 2 -choose your own adventure slideshows continued!
Period 3-we'll continue working on addition strategies:
Addition Math Strategies.pdf (page 2 and 3) -we've done chunking, break apart and number liine.
Period 4 is Music with Mrs. Haynes.
Period 5 and 6 is art. We'll do a little modified Metis dot art/pointillism...sort of like this:

Have a great weekend everyone!
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 - Red light, read aloud, and the phonics lesson from yesterday I didn't get to all about 'r-controlled vowels'...specifically the ar/ & or, ore/or. There should be a bit of independent reading time before we get the chromebooks.
Period 2 -We will continue to work on our Choose Your Own Adventure stories on Google Classroom...integrating links into our Google Slides.
Period 3 -The Grade 2's are off to Raspopov/Smeaton for some Science fun. Grade 3's will stay here and we'll dig a little deeper into First Nation Architecture. I'm hoping we can find some time to research a specific First Nation dwelling and find out which group used it, how it was built, and what sort of forces are acting on it.
Period 4 is math. We're continuing with addition strategies. We've mastered the number line and 'expanded form' addition. We'll be building off that working on adding in chunks (which is similar to number-line...just without the number-line).
Period 5 we have computer buddies. We're going to work on our art skills with a couple of really fun 'digital art' websites.
Period 6 they have Mr. D for gy.
Here is what we did today:
Period 1 -Red light, read aloud, and a lesson on creating links within Google Slides
Period 2 - We started work on our very own 'Choose Your Own Adventure' slideshows. They are very excited about this.
Period 3 - we stayed outside for an extra 10 minutes...but then most of us got cold and came in. We reviewed the 'number line' addition technique from yesterday and I taught them the 'break apart/expanded form' method today (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zRe9BFXAAA). The goal is to teach them several methods and let them pick the method they like best.
Period 4 we did a worksheet and followed that up with some similar questions on Math Prodigy.
Period 5 was Health with Mr. D.
Period 6 we had 'old school' free time where the kids were unplugged and played board games or drew pictures with their friends.
Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 -Red light, read aloud, squiggly story.
Period 2 -French with Mr. Woolley.
Period 3 -Math - we'll look at doing addition using a number line, like this:

We have some work to do as well.
Period 4 we will reenforce those concepts on math prodigy.
Period 5 and 6 the Grade 2's will head to Smeaton/Raspopov for Science and the Grade 3's will stay here. We'll look at Indigenous architecture (e.g., long houses, igloos, wigwams). We'll discuss their construction techniques and what makes them strong and stable. The kids will have a chance to construct their own Indigenous structures using materials around the class...
