Hello room 75 families!
Students were very excited to be using IPADS and Macbooks to enrich their learning. We used IPADS to record the different patterns we found throughout the school, (and in some cases on each other). We also used IPADS to record the different patterns that students created using a variety of different manipulatives, while working with a partner. Ask your child to share with you what patterns they found and what patterns they created. Tomorrow we are going to take what we did and try to identify the different types of patterns found and created and see if we can apply it to create new and different patterns.
Students were busy typing this afternoon! Working with a partner they were typing up a variety of words that describe their character. After writing their words they get to decide what it will look like. These words will become a part of an art and poetry project. Tomorrow the students will finish typing up their words.
Tomorrow is going to be a BUSY day!
We have TERRY FOX run in the morning! 10am! The students are encouraged to dress up as a favorite super hero either fictional or non-fictional. If they don't want to dress up that is OK as well.
Then in the afternoon we will be having our HERO sandwiches! YUM!! After finishing those and with full bellies the students will finish up their typing project!! (hopefully:) Volunteers are welcome for the run as well as in the afternoon!
