Dear students and families,<\/p>\n

We hope you had a good Thanksgiving last weekend! Although I was happy to have an extra day to spend with family, I was sad that I missed a day with our students!<\/p>\n

This past week, we focussed on kindness. We listened to a story called Ish<\/a> (click to watch the story) by Peter Reynolds. It’s one of my favourite books!<\/p>\n

As writers, we continued to work on paragraph writing. This time we wrote about what kindness means to me. We shared the writing of classmates that really showcase exemplary work. On Friday, I introduced the single-point rubric that I use to assess. They chose the paragraph they felt most exemplified their best personal writing and self-assessed their work. Next, I will review and provide my comments. From the exercise, they will learn about their areas of strengths and areas where they can improve.<\/p>\n

In O365 Teams > Assignments > Writer’s Workshop, they are writing a story. At the bottom of their work online, you will see a different single-point rubric. This one is for creative story writing. You will see the targets students are working towards.<\/p>\n

As Mathematicians, we continued to work on our understanding of numbers and place value. We began practicing skip counting by using graph paper to keep us organized.<\/p>\n

As scientists, after choosing our rocks, we made and recorded our observations. I loved seeing and listening to their excitement about the small details they were noticing about their rocks!<\/p>\n

Students were excited to continue to work on their Passion Projects. If you would like to see some of the previous projects, click here<\/a> to go to last year’s blog post.<\/p>\n

As always, thank you for your continued support at home! We appreciate you!<\/p>\n

Sincerely, Ms. Chan and Ms. Paulich<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
