Congrats to the winners in room 5!

Today in room 5:

We began our day with some time to read our new library books and our book boxes before our morning meeting and some reviewing of patterns.

We then moved into snack time and a new writing project. The students are designing characters which they will use in a walking story/comic page. The characters inspiration comes from, "Hello, my name is Octicorn" by Kevin Diller. In this story we learned about a creature that is a combination of two animals. This animal has problems such as not fitting in with the octopi or the unicorns.

Students then go to work on planning out their own combination of animal creatures and a problem that would fit this character.  We will continue working on these next week!

After recess on the playground we returned to class for math and continued our review of objects and shapes. Today the students worked in pairs and were detectives who had to describe different 3D shapes based off their attributes.

After lunch we did our classroom jobs and read a part of the BFG.

Today in gym we played a large game of soccer before returning to class to do some colouring mindfulness. The colouring mindfulness worked wonders for students being able to relax and colour Pysanky eggs. 

After our afternoon recess we did some research on the different uses of boats in Meteghan. This helped us connect what we new about the landforms, natural resources, and animals found within Meteghan to our upcoming science unit...Boats and Buoyancy!

Hope everyone has a wonderful evening!
