Day 12:

Good evening,

Calendar: Today’s calendar was led by Neel. Great job Neel!

 Phonics: Today, the students reviewed the “I/i” and “I/i” sounds, actions and songs. Then students brainstormed a list of “T/t” words on the board. Students then, went to their desks where they completed a worksheet collaboratively with their group mates.

 French: Please see Mlle. Jessica’s blog for more information.

Journal: Today, students focused on writing lists. We discussed the importance of writing numbers down the left side of the page. Students were given these instructions: List three words that have the “I/i” sound.

Lunch/ Recess 1

Math: Today, students reviewed ten-frame math with an extension to numbers from 11-20. First, we practiced our numbers with 1-20 flashcards. Then we completed a few examples on the board where students were interactively demonstrating their knowledge by standing to represent their missing number. Students then went to their desks where they completed a page from their math books collaboratively with their group mates.

Unit of Inquiry: Today, students reviewed what cows give us. Focusing mainly on the process of milk. Next, students were introduced to butter and how its made. Students watched a video called, “Let’s make Butter! - #sciencegoals”. Students learned how to make butter and what to expect tomorrow when we actually make butter as a class! We then discussed some yummy foods that we like to spread butter on.
