Highlights of the Day:
We began our day by introducing "author's chair"-- an activity where students can share and listen to each other's written stories and get feedback from their peers about what they liked! We then continued writing and editing our stories-- with a few students even getting ready to publish their books! We had an early recess today (just as a class), as we had a quick drumming session during our regular recess (to get us ready for tomorrow!). We then had literacy centres, followed by some more practice in creating and translating patterns! In phys. ed., we did a creative movement activity where we moved in ways the music made up feel! After fun lunch, it was PoWer Hour! We finished our day with some Catch-up/ Must-do time, where we finished old art projects, math activities, and story writing!
Idea Lab:
Our Idea Lab is taking shape and we are so very excited to see progress happening daily. We are so excited to get our kids in there and start building, exploring and designing new and innovative things that help solve real-life problems in a creative way. There is a way you can help! On the Idea Lab website,http://powidealab.weebly.com there is a new page that features “Our Wishlist”. This is a spot where you can see what we are in need of to make our Idea Lab a really cool place to learn. Please contact Mme Bergerman if you have any questions about this process or something you’d like to donate. Thanks so much for all you do for us!
