Here's a brief description of our day:
We started this morning reading The Three Sisters, an Iroquois legend about Corn, Bean and Squash. This ties in nicely with our gardening experience at Mount Cartier Court, and an upcoming art project.
During Library, students learned some tips about using WORD as they continued typing up their Knots on a Counting Rope.
During Math, the students worked with a random partner at various stations. Each station focused on a concept that we have been practicing: patterns, money, graphing, odds and evens, and addition war. The kids were on-task and enjoyed rotating to the different stations.
We got to try the dehydrated pears from the other day!
During science, we continued our focus on different forms of energy, as well as what watts and kilowatts are, and how they are used to calculate our hydro bills.
Below are a few pictures of students at their math stations.
