Monday, September 18

 Hi parents,

We had an awesome Monday today.

In the morning, we watched a video about Terry Fox, and then the students wrote in their journals about him. The options were:

"Terry Fox is a hero because..."

"Dear Terry, [write a letter]"

"My thoughts on Terry Fox"

Students were also allowed to come up with their own writing prompt that was related to Terry Fox, and some of them decided to write poems.

In math, we revisited rounding to the nearest hundred, and used 'rounding hopscotch' to help students practice. Hopscotch is underrated for counting. I can't believe it took me this long to realize. It'd be a great way to practice counting by 7's too, when we get there.


We also practiced the new spelling words, had Music and gym, and learned about some of the Montessori materials in our classroom.
