Where did last week go? We have been very busy. We have created our classroom belief statement. We have also started our theme work for the year - we chose the location for our islands. We had to chose a location on a map, find the latitude and longitude of the location, name our island, and we are now drawing a map of our island. Very exciting. We did talk about climate around the globe, but some still chose to put their island in the arctic/antarctic waters. It will be chilly for them. We have learned some more math games and worked on some vertical problem solving. I hope to start our math centre work later this week. Tomorrow is our Terry Fox walk. Hope it warms up and is dryer than today. Today we gathered our grade one reading buddies and shared some Terry Fox facts with them. In class we talked about book reviews. We created criteria and a rubric. We are required to do 10 book reviews over the school year. Each one is marked out of 20. Everyone received a copy of the rubric, as well as a sample. Our first book review is due October 9th.
