Our Week:

We hope everyone had a wonderful and restful Fall break!

Morning Ignite:

The Grades 1 and 2 students are being very creative these days with our morning Ignite centres. We are also seeing that the children are practicing their collaborative and problem solving skills when playing with others. 

Literacy: 

Glacier and Sunrise started The Daily 4 in Literacy this week. We have been working hard on what Read to Self and Read to Someone looks and feels like so The Daily 4 has been a time to work on four different Literacy areas: Read to Self, Read to Someone, Work on Writing, and Word Work. Ask your child about the new word work games they played this week. 

Math:

The grade 1's have been working on recognizing quantities to ten with the tens frame. When looking at square counters placed on a tens frame, our question has been "What number do you see and how do you know?" The Grade 2's continue to work on counting forwards by 1's within a 1000 by starting at any number. They continue to further their understanding of place value by looking at base ten blocks. 

We look forward to seeing everyone at Learning Conferences next week!
