November 18 - 22

Student Learning


  • In math, we have been learning and practicing the game, "Dotty 6". This is to practice subitizing as well as planning ahead. If you would like to try the game at home, please see this link: Dotty 6 
  • In math, we also talked about different ways objects could be measured. We made a T-chart in our math books to compare our pencil's height to different objects in the classroom. 
  • Ask your child to compare the heights of different objects at home and describe the heights using shorter and taller. 
  • In Social Studies, we have been using "The Important Book" to tell the most important thing about our home community. Here are our ideas about the most important thing about home: 


  • We also described the most important thing about our classroom community. 


  • This learning helped us to create our classroom art. 





  • Ask your child to share their most important thing about the classroom community. 
  • On Thursday, we took part in a webinar hosted by Beakerhead. The webinar featured the Calgary artist Jeff de Boer. 

  • We will connect back to the webinar for important ideas about how to approach our learning.
