Today in room 16:
We started our morning with a welcome back conversation and a reminder of the school, classroom and covid safety rules.
We did a desk change and placed ourselves into rows to keep safe and follow covid protocol.
After setting up our room we had some time to reflect on our winter breaks. Students had 30 minutes to write all about what they did on their break, the food they ate, presents they got and more.
We then went outside for recess and time on the field (Thank goodness for the warmer weather!)
The next chunk of our morning was spent doing review for our test on Friday. We are continuing our exploration of measurement this week focusing on area, perimeter and volume of 2D and 3D shapes. I sent the test from before the break home today. Correcting the work is a great way to see where you went wrong and improve for next time.
After math we had science and began following the daytime amount of sun and observations we can make about the sky. We are graphing the amount of daylight as we go and noticing which planets can be seen each day!
The students had gym with Ms Sterne today and began gymnastics. The rule is...no neck stuff. Which means, no handstands, flips or holds that would otherwise cause damage to the neck.
We finished our day with some mindfulness meditation before working on our local government cities.
Hope everyone has a marvellous Monday evening!
