My feedback on the learning letters

As many of you have noticed, I am sending feedback directly back to you and your child through email. Originally, I thought I would put the information into Ed Inform, but that has become too cumbersome. So I am making digital books out of the photos/videos, answers to the questions and my feedback, that I will send to you when this is all over. I will add the digital books to Ed Inform as well as to be a part of your child's permanent school report card.

Instead of keeping the detailed instructions for the Learning Letters here on the blog, I have created this PDF " How- to"  document for the Learning Letters. The link is also in the weekly plan and the detailed instructions for the learning activities.

Addition Practice and Personal Writing

Image
 Personal Writing We have started a unit focusing on writing about personal moments, things that we have seen, done, or had done to us (haircut, tooth pulled etc). We are using Robert Munsch stories as our anchor books as he wrote about children and events based in everyday activities.  The children are encouraged to break a moment into four parts, each part is one idea. As an idea is typically a sentence, we are working on using punctuation at the end of an idea and capitals to start the next idea. We are also practicing using vocabulary that describes the time that has passed e.g. one day, then, while, over, under, on etc.  We will also be practicing adding dialogue to our writing. Robert Munsch certainly writes entertaining dialogue including sound effects! Addition Practice We have completed our unit on addition and double digit addition and are moving on to subtraction. Although we have practiced math addition facts to 20 with games, flash cards and problem solving m...

Carnaval, Friendship and Growth Mindset

Image
 Carnaval We had a very successful Carnaval. We had a dedicated group of children who organized the decorating of our door. The door became an ice palace complete with bonhomme. We also used some of the borax crystals as icicles. There was a second group who created a castle decorated with snowflakes and cotton balls as snow. Borax Crystals As part of our Carnaval celebration and winter explorations, we made crystals with borax. It is part of our science learning as we learn about matter. The children each had a chance to add the borax powder to the water with their pipe cleaner. We talked about how the powder when mixed with hot water, dissolved. We observed that as the water cooled, it became cloudy and we started to see crystals.  Friendship and Growth Mindset We had a wonderful Celebration of Friendship. The fruit salad was well received. The children had many helpings! As a challenge the children spent time creating a heart out of materials in class. The criteria for the ...

Peanut Allergy We have a child with severe nut allergies in our class this year. If you have not received the orange letter from the office, there is a copy below. Link to the  Peanut / Nut allergy Letter Fresh Grade I will be using a tool called Fresh Grade this year. It is an app that allows me to communicate with you year round about what your child is doing in school and the progress that is happening. It is an app or it can be accessed from your desktop computer.   As you can see from the sample I made for the student "test", I can put pictures of your child for you to see, as well as both audio and video recordings. You can contact the teacher and leave comments or questions about the activities that you see on the portfolio. The app also allows yo...
