Tremendous Thursday!!!
Wow how quickly this week is flying by!!!
We began the day learning from Arya how to
say hello in Swahili ‘Jambo’ and we greeted Ms. Jaskolka this morning in Swahili!
This led to a discussion about International Day! We will be exploring the
country of Tanzania! Each student was given a research topic and are being
asked to bring in their information by September 25th. Happy inquiring!!
We then worked as a team through the place
value follow me cards. Today we were able to complete this activity in 4
minutes and 46 seconds!!!
Next we had French and then Gym.
After first recess and lunch we explored
patterns and counting on a hundreds chart. We learned about rows, columns, and diagonals
on a hundred’s chart. We then played a mystery number game using our hundred’s
chart. Ms. Jaskolka called out a mystery number riddle and we worked hard to
figure it out!! For example: I am ten more than 46, who am I (56). We then
learned more about even and odd numbers and how we can determine if a number is
even or odd (an even number can be split in half but an odd number cannot).
Next we worked in partners to explore patterns of 2, 5 and 10 on a hundred’s
chart. We then answered questions in our math book about patterns on a hundred’s
chart using even and odd numbers.
Following second recess and lunch we
celebrated and spoke about the heroes of our community!! We then imagined our
own community and the four community heroes we would need to include and why.
We began working on an activity highlighting these community heroes.
