 2023 Happy First Week of School! In Literacy this week, we focused on developing our writing Stamina and creating our writing goals for the year.  Together we created 2 writing goals, one to make our writing interesting and one to make it clear. In reading, we discussed the 3 ways to read, and began working on our reading STAMINA. In Math this week, we began exploring how to represent numbers in different ways.  We played a game to build the largest number using a place value chart and practised reading larger numbers to 10 000. On Thursday, we used base ten blocks to build a creation and then represent the number of blocks in standard form. Looking Ahead to Next Week: 1. In Literacy, we will continue to build our Reading and Writing Stamina.  2. In math, we will create a Figure Me Out math project! Important Reminders: 1. Photo Day - Tuesday, September 19th 2. Pancake breakfast - Friday, September 15th 3. Meet the Teacher Night - Thursday, September 21st Happy Weekend, Mrs. Stringer
