A HUGE thank you goes out to Ponoka Dental Centre for sponsoring our dental presentation today! We had a dental hygienist come in and teach us all about how to take care of our teeth. It was a very interactive presentation and the kids were captivated by the entie thing! They learned a little rhyme to help them brush- inside, outside, where you chew your food. Hopefully they all came home and told you something that they learned! We even had a visit from the tooth fairy! Here are a couple pictures:

We have been working on our 2 units "Seasonal Changes-Spring" and "Needs of Plants and Animals". I absolutely love these units as they are so hands on! Take a look at our top secret project! :)
It seems like we say it constantly but it has been another busy week in Grade 1!
We did some minor changes with our Language learning to allow for our students to get even more time to complete Daily 5 activities. The kids have loved being able to write and then share their writing in our Author/Reader's Chair. However I think it is even more exciting to get to ask the person sharing some questions! We have also delved into Listen to Reading on the ipads. Kids are able to access their Raz-Kids accounts or scan a QR code to listen to a story. In Math we started our Measurement unit. The kids will be rotating to each of the teachers to learn all about measurement. They will go to Miss Larsen to learn length/height, Mrs. Rarick and Mrs. Meeks to learn area. Miss Longjohn for weight and Mrs. Secretan for capacity. The kids seem to be enjoying working with all the teachers! In Science we spent the week talking about Spring changes. We will be starting our unit on Needs of Plants and Animals. The classes even started a top secret project! ;) Here are some pictures from the week! Our tricky words for this past week were: over, under, were and after.
Words next week are: again, now, going and just. We are nearing the end of tricky word list for the year. The Grade 1s have been working SO hard on them! Keep it up! |
