Book Stores and More

Hello!

We had a good week back to regular routine after the fun of student-led conferences. The students set up the dramatic play centre as a book store. We experienced amounts of learning here. Students displayed their connections to real life store experiences. They showed their understanding of books as they made books, some with pretend writing and some with real writing. They used their number sense as they created money to buy the books with. And tied up in all this they learned and practiced valuable social skills!

  

We also showed what we know about connections to real life through puppet theatre. Some puppet shows were about numbers, some about friendship, and some about needing to use 7 Habits!

 

 We also discovered more about bouncing!

We also created a hockey rink (great learning on sportsmanship!)

In math this week, we learned about position words (top, bottom, over, side, behind) and played games to see if we could use those words first to find things in our room and then to play a matching game. We continued on to learn 3D shapes like sphere and cube.

Happy weekend! Be blessed!
