Feb 19 - Feb 22

This week we worked on addition and subtraction mysteries in math.  For example, ___+ 3 = 10 and 15 - ___ =7.  You can continue to work on these at home with your child.  Some use numberlines and counters to help them, others have their own mental math strategies that they use.

Our community project is still a hot topic in our room.  There has been talk about making some gift baskets to raffle.  Stay tuned for details.  We created a collection jug for students at the school to add some spare change.  Thank you to the Price family for donating the jug!

We started to make a community book that shows us our community, city, province and country.  I put a few pictures of the school on the data projector and they drew their own.  Everyone did an amazing job!  Here are a few examples.

Here are some pictures of our toothpick art from last week.
