Dear Families,
My final week of solo teaching has come to an end, unfortunately! We have been working very hard on natural disasters, fractions, reading comprehension and poetry. Everyone in the class has been very helpful and a pleasure to work with over the past couple of weeks. Thank you for allowing me to inquire, live and learn with all our your children. Take a look at what we have been up to this week.

In math, we are learning about fractions. The students have learned parts of a whole
and what makes up a whole. We have
continued making interactive math journals.
They are learning about halves, thirds, fourths and fractions up to
eighths. We played games, such as parts
of a whole and we will play musical chairs fractions! Also, I wanted to include a picture of the
students tangrams from last week’s geometry.
In science, the students have been presenting their weather disaster
presentations. We had a great time
learning all about natural disasters and what to do if one were to occur. We have continued to go outside each day and
complete our weather charts. We have had
conversations about why we have seasons and why it is warmer in the summer than
in spring. Our future scientists are
always happy to discuss science!
In writing, we have been discussing poetry. The students have had opportunities to see
the world through poets' eyes and write some poetry of their own. It is amazing to watch them get so excited
about learning rhythm and line breaks in their writing. They will continue to write poetry after the
break and even begin song writing.
