We had another fun filled couple days.
In Math, we have started some new centres where students are measuring in inches and feet. We are also measuring our height. Please come by and check out our classroom door to see how your child "measures up". In Language Arts, we continued to work on fact and opinion. Today students used cards that had facts or opinions on them. They read the statement and had to sort it in either the fact pile, or the opinion pile, and give an answer telling why they thought it went there. During our UOI, we had a visit from the Second Grade class. Both First and Second grade have been working on a mini literature unit on The Polar Express. Yesterday we read the book, and today we watched clips from the movie. We will be spending some time tomorrow comparing and contrasting the two. We are looking forward to our Holiday Hurrah with the lower elementary school tomorrow. Pictures to come!
