What patterns can you make on a 100 chart? First, we made colour patterns on blank 100 charts and then filled in the corresponding numbers to see what increasing patterns the colours made.#rvsed @SarahThompsonSc
Practicing our problem solving skills with ‘The Coded 100 Square’ activity from NRICH Math. A great way to recognize patterns within a 100 chart and work on explaining our thinking. @SarahThompsonSc #rvsed
We spent the morning reading about soldiers who fought for our country by scanning our poppies on the website poppystories.ca. @SarahThompsonSc #rvsed
Our friend Arfie wrote us a letter! We read the story ‘Can I Be Your Dog?’ by Troy Cummings and wrote letters to Arfie explaining what would make us good owners. Arfie wrote us a letter back and sent pictures of his friends to everyone! @SarahThompsonSc
A dancer demonstrated a straight dance for us in war bonnet regalia. We were so impressed, the students asked to see more! @SarahThompsonSc
We had a great day learning about Blackfoot Culture at Blackfoot Crossing Historical Park. We even got to try out a friendship dance!
Lady bugs galore! The perfect weather to get outside and sketch insects during Science.@SarahThompsonSc #RVSed
Playing Battleship using CVC words. “That was fun! I think we ran out of time for phonics, Mrs.Lepine.” 😆
To start using our new math language of rotations, reflections and translations the students chose an envelope with a mystery picture inside and took turns giving instructions to make the picture without letting their partner peek. We had a blast! @SarahThompsonSc #RVSEd
We had fun learning about lines of symmetry and made symmetrical funny faces using loose parts. @SarahThompsonSc #RVSed
