Dear fantastic families,
This week:
* We have been working on gymnastics. This morning the vault was four sections tall. We had to be very careful when we jumped! LT really wishes there was a trampoline.
* We are on chapter 81 out of 90 chapters of Wild Robot Escapes. HK really wants to tell us what happened... but she won't.
* We have started getting ready for Student Led Conferences. We will see you next week for our conferences on Wednesday or Thursday.
* In music we played some songs and steel tum drums.
* This week we started learning about shapes. First we learned about 2D shapes (triangle, dodecagon, diamond, etc.) and 3D shapes (cube, rectangular prism, sphere, triangular prism, etc.).
* In Social Studies we learned about Alberta. Did you know in Alberta there is a mall called West Edmonton Mall. They have a waterpark and a carnival inside the mall! Did you know that Mrs. Marta is from Alberta? In Drumheller there is a museum with real dinosaur bones.
* We got a new Sporcle record of 136/197. We beat Mr. Marta's class!
* Yesterday we got a postcard from Hawaii. We watched a video about a big volcano in Hawaii.
* Our student teachers are teaching geometry, and Mrs. Marta calls her math "Marta Math" now.
* There is a book club reading the book Chicken Squad. Mrs. Marta calls them her book squad.
* This week we played with all the pieces in chess. These are the points the pieces are worth: pawn = 1, knight = 3, bishop = 3, rook = 5 and queen = 9. If you get a pawn to the other side it turns into a queen. If you get the other person's king you win the game.
We hope you have a magnificent weekend!
From,
Mrs. Marta's funny, caring, magnificently magical, singing, silly, smart, intelligent, and hard-working students
