Please return library books, all library books were due back today, May 29th. The first class to return all their library books will win a prize & we are only a few books away from returning they all!!! We almost have all our books returned!
Highlights:
-We started our day with literacy centers.
-Today we wrote about the life of a seed. Students choose a seed of a plant they like and wrote about the process to grow from seed to plant. We watched Sid the Seed to get some ideas on the growth of a seed.
-In Physical Education, we began our fitness week by playing Waiter, where if your tray got knocked down you had to do 5 burpees. We tried out a new game called Push up Hockey, where you and a partner hold plank or modified plank and use a bean bag as a puck and try and score by passing the bean bag through your partners arms.
-Our focus in Social Studies was landmarks today to prepare us for our upcoming field trip to downtown Calgary. In our visual journals, we created a page dedicated to Calgary Landmarks. We discussed how Calgary landmarks are unique to our city and landmarks in our community often help us navigate and give directions.
