Grade 1 had another busy week in class!
Our class continues to
inquire into the different ways we communicate. This week, we investigated
effective ways to communicate locally and globally. The children shared how
they communicate with their relatives and friends using technology. We also
investigated non-verbal ways to communicate using sign language and symbols.
In Math, our learning
continues to focus on exploring 2D shapes. The children investigated the
different attributes of polygons and other shapes. We talked about the
different shapes of everyday things and did a 2D shape hunt around the school.
The children are doing an
amazing job learning to use connectives such as: first, next, the, after that
and finally to write their procedural writing.
Our class will be very busy
in the next two weeks before the break. We will be wrapping up our unit of
inquiry and we have a few school wide activities to look forward to.
