We’re settling in to old, familiar routines and we’re really enjoying our learning.
Thanks so much for sending homework photos! We really enjoyed looking at them and discussing them in class today. Please continue to send them! It’s a great opportunity to practice speaking.
In Maths this week we looked at the numbers 9 and 10. We did some subitizing, some comparing sets, and started working on “one more”.
In Literacy we began our book Gigantosaurus and we found a special delivery of dino eggs to start us off. It was exciting to open the eggs and find some of the dinosaurs in the story. We also practiced writing a sentence about a character. We’re in a unique situation where this isn’t entirely a new story as it’s an animation that’s been watched at home!
In IEYC we continued to explore weather. We’re tracking the weather every day and we also did some rain experiments. We dripped paint to look like rain running down a window. Also, we used shaving foam and coloured water to simulate clouds and rain in a bottle. When the coloured water got too heavy for the shaving foam, it dripped through like rain in a cloud!
In Phonics we looked at the letter X and the digraphs CH and QU. We also read two ditties and one had the red word “I”.
That’s it for this week. I hear rain is in the forecast for this weekend so stay dry. Why not try one of the rainy day activities in the homework pack?
See you on Monday!
