This week we have the Scholastic Book Fair at school! Students will have an opportunity on Wednesday morning to go and look at and hear about the books that will be for sale. Students can write down a few things they are interested in and the price. Then on Thursday students that bring money can visit the sale and buy items. It will also be open in the evening for the student-led conferences and on Friday morning as well. There are still quite a few spots available to come visit the classroom Thursday or Friday that you can sign up for online. Your child will share some of their recent learning with you!
We just finished up some beautiful art projects that students have created to represent various regions of Canada. They are also working on written pieces to describe what makes the Arctic, East Coast, and Prairie regions unique.
In math we learned a new game Mancala (it's actually a very old game that originated in Africa) that helps develop logic and spatial awareness- students love it! There are actually quite a few strategies that students are beginning to recognize as they play it more. This game is easy to recreate at home and your child is eager to show you how to play at our conferences!
