 Hi all,

Today we did a monthly writing sample and imagined what super power we might have and how we would use it. We practiced writing instructions in a new little mini unit on sequence writing. Today we wrote out instructions to make a pizza! After lunch we practiced more word problems and then attempted Minecraft again. We ended our day with some basketball practice and a little more Matilda.

 Hi all,

Today we got 5 new wow words to kick off our week! They follow the 'ue' or 'u_e' rule which makes a looooong u sound. They are.... use, blue, cute, huge, tissue.

We had music and did a number of the day. We finished our addition quiz and also practiced word problems today. We tried to get Minecraft education going but only managed to download the game onto the laptops so tomorrow we will try again and actually get started! We ended our day with basketball in gym and a new book for read aloud called Matilda.

Reminders:

Please book a parent teacher conference for this week!

Friday Mar 4th

 Hi all,

Today we had gym right away and played a game of curling. We read a bit and celebrated a birthday with a GoNoodle before we did some science work. We wrote our KW charts and also watched Bill Nye to see what he had to say about heat! After a quick desk clean we did a double digit addition quiz and then it was basically home time!

Reminders:

Please book a parent teacher conference time for next Thursday night or Friday. 

No school next Friday.

Thursday Mar 3

 Hi all,

We had a cool show and tell this morning from Carter that got the Mario theme song stuck in my head all day! We made our Venn diagram for the BFG. We made a graph for February's weather data and also helped each other practice our double digit addition with regrouping. We will do the quiz tomorrow or maybe Monday. We wrote Wow word sentences, played some basketball in gym and drew a cool campfire in honour of our new science unit, hot and cold. 

Reminders:

I know I've been saying it all week but parent teacher conference booking actually opens today at 4pm! Sorry for the confusion. I forget it opens up for teachers to view first (eyeroll). Please do go ahead and book an appointment as soon as you get a chance!

There is no school next Friday. That's Friday March 11th.

 Hi all,

Today we started off with free writing. This is where you get to practice writing on any topic of your choice! We carried on practicing our double digit addition. After lunch we watched the BFG movie. We were looking for similarities and differences from the book. Tomorrow we will write in a Venn diagram and also make a prediction as to what could happen next in the story. We paused to practice some basketball in gym. 

Reminders:

Parent teacher conferences are next week. Please book a time to talk about your child's progress.

Keep logging those reading minutes to earn cards and a shot at our school getting to meet some of the Calgary Flames!

 Hi all,

Today we wrote some simple sentences about something we know a lot about, ourselves! We saw Mr. Wiens for music and did the number 50 for a number of the day. After lunch we had mathletics and then read a cute little story to practice our predicting powers. We also found some time to clean up some folders before home time. 

Reminders:

Please book a conference time for next week. Log in to mycbe and book a time on Thursday night or Friday.
