Question of the night: Think of as many words as you can that have three or more syllables...
Wow, where did the sun go? We were lucky enough today to make it outside in between the rain. I wonder if we'll be so fortunate tomorrow. This seems like a good time to talk about dressing appropriately for the weather. Our picture book for this morning was called, "One of Us". Make sure to ask your child about this book, and how it relates to their lives. Our writing has been super engaging this week! In our spelling time, we continued to work on consonant blends, focusing on syllables today. Check the question of the night for a tough challenge. Being able to accurately identify syllables helps us in our spelling by slowing us down. Also, we know that a syllable needs a vowel, so that information is useful while spelling, as well. Tomorrow, we'll be sorting the blends into categories and seeing if we can find a pattern. We also continued to work on perimeter and measurement this morning. We looked at measuring objects that are round, rather than straight, and how string may be a useful tool for that task. Tomorrow we move into measuring shapes while using grid paper. In the afternoon, our work focused on Calgary - past & present. We watched about half of a movie made in 1955 to promote Calgary tourism. We used a venn diagram to compare and contrast Calgary's features. We'll follow up with it tomorrow. Scholastic book orders are due this Friday, if you're interested in ordering books. Have a great night. ____________________________________________________ Great books for sale in the Learning Commons!
