The children each had a container to examine snow inside the classroom. The idea is two fold.  Firstly, to note a solid going to a liquid and to notice the difference in size.  Secondly, to see what is in the snow and why one does not eat it.

The children used string that was 100 millimetres for measuring various items.

This is an art and math lesson combined.  The students had to glue on black strips to the paper but had to make sure the strips went to the end of designs.

Using  paint, the  spaces had to be filled in.  This was done in the style of Piet Mondrian.

We read the story of ‘Sadie and the Snowman’.  We sequenced the story.  We then drew pictures and dictated our ideas to Mrs. Ezra.  The next step was to write in  journals our own words about the story.   Using loose parts, we designed our own snowmen.  From there, each child using their own  using plasticine made snowmen.  Each child using their own container, poured coloured water of their choice.  These were frozen.  Later we took them out.  This is in relation to the  science unit about liquids, solids, gases.

See the frozen items.  It took two days to melt.

The children made their snowmen.  The grade ones wrote their own ideas, while the kindergarten dictated their ideas to me.

We are reading the room.

We read two stories about Martin Luther King.  The children drew great drawings about their dreams for abetter world.

Grade Ones wrote their own stories, while Kindergarten dictated their ideas.
