Day 7
Our morning began in mathematics where the students were
given a task by Mr. Sawatsky. He had received a letter from ‘Statistics Canada’
with a task to survey the students in Grades 1-3. Grade 2 offered their help to
support Mr. Sawatsky and decided that they would survey Grade 1.
The students formed groups, prepared their tallies and went
to survey the Grade 1 classes. We then came back together to discuss our
results.
After mathematics the students had P.E with Mr. H, followed
by UOI. In UOI the students learnt about Chinese New Year. We listened to the
story of ‘The Great Race’ and recalled the story as a class.
The students then identified their own Chinese Zodiac and describe
their similarities and differences .
We then had first lunch and recess followed by music with
Mr. Oliver.
After music we continued with UOI and created a mask of our
favourite Chinese Zodiac from the story. Many students were able to express
their opinions and explain why they liked a certain animal.
We then had second lunch and recess, followed by French and
agendas. After agendas we also used our masks for a drama activity where we
described the feelings of the various animals in the race.
