Week of June 1

 Looking back on learning... 

Language Arts 
Students focused on words with the long O sound spelled oa and ow and long I sound spelled ie and igh.We practiced reading, spelling, and using these words in different activities throughout the week. To help reinforce our learning, we played a fun game of Bingo using our long O and long I words. 

Math 

Students continued learning about 2D and 3D shapes. We explored how shapes can move through slides, flips, and turns, and practiced sorting shapes based on their different attributes. Students also learned how to identify and describe features such as faces, edges, and vertices. As part of our hands-on learning, we even built our own paper cubes to better understand how 2D shapes come together to create 3D objects. 

Wellness 

Students learned and practiced the steps for solving a problem. We discussed strategies for working through challenges calmly and respectfully and talked about ways we can solve problems independently and with others. 

Art 

Students continued working on their colourful fruit slice projects. This week, we learned how to use oil pastels to add detail, texture, and bright colours to our artwork. 

Gym

Students practiced soccer skills and learned how to pass using the inside of their foot. We worked on control, teamwork, and accuracy through different soccer activities and games. Students showed great effort and enthusiasm while practicing these new skills.
