We are Citizens
We have been exploring community and investigate the questions What is a community? and What communities are we part of? We have also been exploring our impact on the local environment.
Over the next couple of weeks, our school is taking part in a design challenge. As part of the design challenge, we will be focusing on ways that we can make our community a better place. Students will have a chance to plan and create a project of their choice. More information to come!
Students work together to document their ideas about community using pictures and words.
We are Mathematicians
We have been exploring different ways to model mathematical stories. Using different objects, students have explored strategies to make sense of, represent, and solve various problems. We have also been practicing documenting our thinking on paper and sharing our thinking with one another to help build on each others understandings.
We are Readers and Authors
We have continued to share our own personal stories. We have been focusing on starting with a title and discussing how a title tells the reader what our stories are about. We have also been discussing and practicing making all of our sentences belong.
We are all very excited to have started Reader’s Theater this week! Students will work together in groups to practice and perform their Reader’s Theater stories.
Have a wonderful week!
