Dear Parents,<\/p>\n
Today, the kids had Music first thing and I continued to conduct reading assessments with them one-on-one. Then, we worked on our student reflections where students reflected on what they are were proud of doing this term and what they would like to work on next term – this will be reflected on their Term 1 report card. Then, we did our first turn of our Biomes Catan game – the students were pretty excited to strategize and discuss with their groups what they wanted to do next to win.<\/p>\n
After lunch, we did an impromptu writing assessment: the students had to write about what they wanted to do for Winter Break this year. After that, they worked on their papier mache medieval buildings – they are coming along wonderfully!<\/p>\n
At the end of the day, we looked at a video about the Group of Seven – a group of Canadian artists who specialized in nature landscapes. The students picked which painting inspired them and created a sketch of a picture of a Group of Seven landscape they would like to take inspiration from (not copy). We also identified which biomes were depicted in these paintings to connect it to our Science learning.<\/p>\n
The only homework today is to study for the spelling test – it is on Thursday!<\/strong> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n Ms. Wilks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dear Parents, Today, the kids had Music first thing and I continued to conduct reading assessments with them one-on-one.
