February 3 - 7

Student Learning

  • On Wednesday, we had our field trip to the CPO to see 'The Hockey Sweater' as well as a presentation from the Alberta School of Ballet. When we returned to school, we used an event map to journal about the experience. Ask your child to share how the music made them feel and the instruments that they saw. 






  • In writing, we worked on retelling and sequencing. We read the book, "Wolf in the Snow" and then retold through pictures and words what happened first, next and last. Ask your child to share what happened in this book. 




  • In math, we have been working on the thinking routine, "Always, Never" connected to our learning about adding ten. Ask your child to share if the following are always true or never true: 


  • We have also been playing a math game called, "Totality". Directions for the game as well as a printable copy of the game board can be found here
