Making Choices

Another busy week here in Grade One with lots of learning, going over routines, making great bonds with classmates, connections to past knowledge and building on what we already know! Phew, we have been busy!!

Maths

We have been collecting data to graph. This week all the students came up with their own questions that they would like to ask their classmates. What's your favourite ice cream flavour? What colour are your eyes? What colour car do you like? Who is your favourite super hero? and many more. Once they had collected their data they had to show the results on a bar graph. They all did a fabulous job!

We also had Maths centres during the week where we rotated around different activities. 

Unit of Inquiry

On Wednesday afternoon we did 4 rotations which saw the students move around the grade one teachers to learn about making choices and healthy living. The students enjoyed various activities including yoga, learning how sweating helps to cool our bodies down, how lungs work and a great app that shows us what happens inside our bodies. The students are writing a recount of these rotations and they will be posted onto Seesaw this week. Keep any eye out for the notification.

On Fridays we always have a bit of fun to end the week. We have been doing activities where we have to interact and co-operate with each other. This helps to build a sense of community in the class where we are all comfortable to share play and learn.

Please do check out Seesaw this week for updates on Art, PE and our recount writing :-)
