Calendar: Today the calendar routine was led by Arya.
Phonics: Today the students were introduced to the "Ii" sound, action and song. Together we brainstormed a list of "Ii" words. We also created the letter "Ii" with our play dough.
Journal: With today being the first day of Fall, the student wrote in their journals: "I like fall because...." It was great to see all the students answers and attempts of trying to sound out the words on their own. They all did a fantastic job! Take a look at a few:
Art: Please see Ms. Kerr's blog for more information.
Math: Today we reviewed counting to 10 and the correct way to print the numbers. Today we reviewed how to count backwards from 10-0. The students completed a worksheet placing the numbers in the correct order.
Lunch/ Recess 1
French: Please see Mlle. Hou's blog for more information.
Unit of Inquiry:Today the students reviewed our 5 senses. Students together listed the 5 senses and we matched the sense to the correct word on the board. We continued our focus is on Sight. Today we discussed how their are some people who are unable to see (blind), some people who wear glasses and some people who have perfect vision. Today we focused on what it means to be blind. Students learned that people who are blind read differently then we do. They use something called Braille. The students created their own braille with their pencil. Take a look:
