Happy Wednesday December 2!
Reminders:
-Beddington Heights is participating in the Mayor's Annual Food Drive this year! Please bring in any nonperishable food items for the Calgary Food Bank! Also, we are collecting monetary donations. This will be a great act of kindness and show a great deal of care for others during a trying time of year for those who are less fortunate. The drive ends Dec 11th. Thank you for your support on this!
-No School Friday Dec 4 (PD DAY)
-Winter Break starts December 18th! Only 2 weeks!
-The first week back from school we will be doing online learning (Jan 4-11) I have given parents their log ins in a private email earlier in October. We have practiced logging in now twice! They may need some additional help at home when the time comes.
Today in room 5:
We began our day with some time to read our brand new library books! Ms P. hand selected us some great stories to read and use for the next few weeks.
Students then enjoyed some time after reading in the gym with Mr Sadowsky doing some holiday themed team games.
Next we moved into our morning routine to look at our December calendar, days of the week, months of the year, number of the day and a brand new weather graph! We are filling in the weather of Calgary for the month of December using a bar graph. On the back side we built the x and Y axis of a new line graph! This new graph will help us to compare the temperature in Saskatoon and Calgary. It will also help us to see the pattern of how the temperature rises and falls depending on the day!
After snack and recess on the field we moved into some word work. For word work today we moved watched a rhyming book (Hop on Pop) to see how the beginning sounds of words change when we rhyme. I then had students use our wow words (all, be, came, do, eat, good) to create new words using rhyming!
In the afternoon we had a large chunk of time using ipads. For this block I had the students log into their educbe emails on google docs. Students are now more familiar with being able to log in which well help them when we go to work online! After we logged in, students were tasked with typing up their edited work journal write up from their create your own creature project. Typing is a very important skill that I wanted students to begin practicing early :)
After recess on the playground we began working on our second zones of regulation poster. This poster will be displayed in the hallway for all students to use. We used blank Minecraft characters to show the different emotions we feel in the four zones. Students also decorated labels which will go underneath the emotions.
At the end of the day we had a fire drill and the students did a fantastic job with leaving the school quickly, quietly and remaining quiet once they were lined up outside. Keep up the great work room 5!
Have a great evening!
Mr Lancee
