Science- Daily and Seasonal Change

      In Science we are covering the outcome "Daily and Seasonal Change". In this unit we will be learning about the days of the week, months of the year, seasons, and more! We have just started to learn about the days of the week and months of the year. We have been learning some songs and dances to go help us remember them. We also do calendar every day which helps us with the days, months and seasons so this outcome will be ongoing throughout the year. Check us out! 





     Today we had a pretty fun day. We got to go to the Atrium (this was the old staff room and has now turned into a work area). The kids thought it was pretty neat and it allows them to work in a different space which also gets them more excited to work/learn and feel at home! 

Everyone was working hard despite their poses! 

     We also had our Grade 8 buddies come and help us work a "word hunt". Students listened to their buddy and watched the words to see if they could find any of our sight words we have worked on. If they found them, they wrote them down on a sticky note (this is what was in their agenda today). This is an activity you can do at home with a sticky note or you could find some hi-lighter tape! The sticky notes that were sent home students can use to practice their sight words.






Our new sight words this week are:
see
is
go
so
am
We have also been talking about vowels and short vowel sounds.
