A wonderful Wednesday!
Our morning began with
assembly where we sang O’Canada. Then we had register followed by the calendar,
the weather and 100 days of school.
Next we had mathematics
where the students completed activities related to our unit ‘Number Sense’.
After
that we had recess followed by phonics and UOI. In phonics the students
practiced their letter formation of letter ‘Kk’.
In UOI the students explored the healthy habit of a ‘washing’.
As a class they discussed ‘germs’ and the importance of washing our hands
regularly. Then the students completed an experiment where they will observe
the impact of germs using 3 slices of bread. The 1st slice was
placed into a zip lock bag. The 2nd slice was touched by all of the
students. The 3rd slice was sneezed upon. The students will watch to
see how the bread is affected by the germs.
Our afternoon began with P.E with Miss.
Cranfield followed by Daily 5.
We then had afternoon recess followed by music with Miss.
Elliot.
