Investigating 2-D ShapesThis week we started investigating and discussing 2-D figures. The students worked in groups and talked about what they already know. We've been discussing the terms; polygons (shapes that have three or more straight lines) and vertices (two lines that meet to form a corner) Retelling a StoryOver the past couple of weeks, we have been working on retelling stories. Students have read a variety of fiction books as a whole class and in small groups. We know that to retell a story, we need to identify the; characters, setting, problem, events and solution. Students have been practicing completing Go Maps to practice recalling these parts of the story. Our First Skating TripWe had so much fun skating on our first skating trip. It was so great to see the different skill levels and friends helping each other to improve their skills. Thank you to all the parents volunteers that came and enjoyed the afternoon with us.
