Students loved coloring, painting and labeling their animal home murals this week. Each partnership worked very hard to collaborate and support each other throughout this big project. These turned out beautifully. 

To continue our understanding of feelings and emotions, we explored the power of colour in art. We looked at paintings of different colours and tried to guess the meaning and emotions behind each. To connect with our letter of the week, B, we talked about what it means to feel blue. Students learned a new watercolour technique to represent a time they felt sad. 

 

 

 

We played a new math game this week using our Power of Ten cards. These cards are amazing for helping students to develop a visual understanding of how numbers relate to one another. For example, 9 is one less than 10, 5 is half of 10, 7 is 5 and 2 more, etc. We will learn many different games with these cards throughout the year. 

Classroom Reminders:
