There is a lot of snow out there! Remember to pack all your winter gear for school!
This week we will be wrapping up our Data Management Unit. Students will be creating bar graphs with different scales (1,2,5,10) and analyzing data. Last week we created pictographs with various scales (1,2,5, 10). After Data Management we will be learning about Multiplication & Division.
In Language we are learning about making inferences before, during, and after reading. We have also started Persuasive Writing. It sounds like a lot of friends want pets! They may start trying to persuade you!
We are learning about the elements of Music. Last week we learned about note and rest value. We had fun clapping various rhythms. This week we will create our own music by composing 8 measures of rhythm. We may even get a chance to practice them using rhythm instruments! I may need to bring my earplugs!
We have started our Science Unit on Strong & Stable Structures. We are learning what a structure is as well as some characteristics of structures. Have your child look for "triangulation", "struts", "ties" and other features of a structure around your home and neighbourhood.
