Moving Right Along

Whoops, we didn't make our blog deadline last week, with the PD day last Friday. But we've been very busy in the classroom. Web are focusing on measurement right now. How much longer, shorter? What is taller, bigger? What is heavier, lighter? How much do I weigh, how tall am I? We are continuing our investigations about penguins. We have our "Question of the day", each week that gives us so many authentic opportunities to discuss sentence writing, make math estimations and answer adding or subtracting questions. It really is our favourite time of the day. Also this week we are just beginning a game time at the end of the day. We play Snakes and Ladders, Candyland, Trouble, etc. There are so many rich learning opportunities that can come from playing games. Thanks to the families who donated games to,our cause.
