Welcome Back to 2019!

In PE this week, students are participating in "Movement and Mats", the focus includes:  balancing, jumping, landing, and rolling.

In Social Studies we began discussions about the next community we will be "traveling" to, Iqlauit, Nunavut.  After checking the temperature in Iqaluit, we quickly realized that it's imperative to pack for frigid temperatures!

In Math we launched our seventh unit, Number Sense: Addition and Subtraction with Numbers to 100. In this unit, students will review counting and ordering numbers to 100. They will also explore various strategies and tools for solving addition and subtraction problems within 100. Students will use hundreds charts, base ten blocks, ten-frames, and number lines. Strategies will include counting forwards and counting backwards, and making use of the connection between addition and subtraction.

During Writer's Workshop, students were introduced to another planning tool: the web. We are planning and writing a paragraph about our Winter Break.
