Term 1 Week 4 Update

So sorry for the late update. I had some technical difficulties before the Chuseok break.

We had lots of great learning and exciting exploration happening.

In Maths we continued to explore ways to sort and classify. We looked at things that could be pairs, like socks or shoes – even earrings. We sorted items by different attributes such as buttons that could be sorted by colour or then sorted by the number of holes they had. 

In Phonics we looked at the letters P, Q, R, S, and T. We’re getting close to the end of the alphabet! In Writer’s Workshop we continued adding labels to our stories and finished off our Writing With Stories unit by drawing our own picture books!

In IEYC we had a show and tell with our favourite toys. We learned about the right way to wash our hands to keep ourselves sick. This is an important lesson even outside of coronavirus. We also learned about brushing our teeth. We soaked white eggs (like the kind we have in Canada and the US) in cola overnight and then used some toothpaste and a toothbrush to see if we could remove all those stains. It was definitely a visual lesson on how sugar and food can stain our teeth. 

In PE we put in a valiant effort trying to do some yoga with moderate success.

Of course, on Friday we had our Chuseok activities. It was great seeing everyone in their hanbok.
