Wonderful
Wednesday!!
We
began the day having French with Mlle. Jessica.
We
then moved onto Math. In Math, we explored the length of
time that certain tasks take. Students answered what takes longer: lining up
for recess or recess itself? What would take a shorter time: eating lunch or
walking to the door? What would take less time: walking across the room or
singing “Happy Birthday.” We figured out that it was singing happy birthday. We
also used a pendulum to see how many swings it took to do certain tasks: write
our name, draw and colour in a circle, say the alphabet.
We then estimated how long it took
to blink our eyes 10 times, draw a face, sing “Row, Row, Row Your Boat,” put on
our coat, wash our hands. Then we used a pendulum to see how many swings it
took us to do each activity. Using the pendulum, we were able to explore how
quick seconds move.
We then had physical education with
Mr. H.
We then continued with our Math.
After first recess and lunch, we
continued calming our minds and our bodies with yoga. We explored how to
perform more yoga poses as a group. After, we worked with a partner to review
the various yoga poses that we learned.
When we returned, we reviewed how
to write a proper explanation as a class. After, we discussed how we would go
about writing an explanation for a newly invented toy. We then used our imagination
to invent our own toy; today we focused on getting all our ideas out using a
brainstorm.
After second recess and lunch, we
read chapter 14 and 15 of Charlotte’s Web. When we were finished, we began
writing a summary of chapter 15.
