April News:
Social Studies: The class has completed an investigation of the neighbourhood and community. We have begun to look at Canadian symbols and the students will also be introduced to basic mapping skills. Students are welcome to bring in Canadian symbol items to school for sharing.
Math: The class is currently working on numbers to 100. Students are learning to count forwards and backwards, read and record numbers to 100, skip count by 2s, 5s, and 10s.
P.E.: We are starting kilometre club next week. Students will be running, walking, skipping around the field on Mon., Wed. and Thur.. (During school time). We will be out rain or shine so students need to dress for the weather and wear appropriate shoes for running. I will keep track of the distances and students will earn ribbons at different milestones.
Writing: For the last term the focus will be on story writing as well as adding more description to written work.
