Week 12: It feels like winter!

November 25-29

On Monday, students created a name plate for our alphabet wall using thin markers to make colour patterns.

On Wednesday, students created a winter scene drawing for our grade 4 buddies. We used a white crayon on a blue background. We brainstormed things we see in the winter and then created our winter drawings.

Dice games are a great way to learn to subitize (seeing the set a knowing how many). This week we played a game where we rolled a die and found the corresponding number to also practice identifying the number 1-6. Please check out this video to see some examples of subitizing:

Next week:
- I will ask students to think about how they are unique
- Focus on letter Ee (sound/printing)
- #6 (How many ways can we show number 6?)

Reminders:
- Please be sure to return library books each week. Many students have 2 books overdue
- Dress for the weather. We do go outside on some days and we need to make sure everyone is dressed warmly
- Please leave all toys at home
- If your child makes a pattern at home, please take a photo and email it to me at clharich@cbe.ab.ca
