This week was short (4 days) and rainy, but a good learning week. We read books about pumpkins in science (life cycle), talked about what we already knew and compared that with new information we didn’t know. Coming up this week we will be doing some investigation and experiments with a class pumpkin, as well as making a pumpkin craft. (Note: Each student will need to bring a roll of toilet paper to school for this craft as mentioned in the planner) We have completed review of proper formation of the alphabet letters, and the phonogram sounds associated with each letter, and are beginning to practise beginning, middle, ending sounds of simple words. In Math we have reviewed proper formation of numbers 0-20, and will begin with addition facts. As well, we have had a lot of fun learning about patterns and making them with different manipulatives. In Socials Studies we are finishing up on our family unit. We have read 14 Robert Munsch stories so far and we are making great connections with these stories!
