Winter Writing

Hello Families,

In preparation for conferences, our class was really excited to build and share our winter bulletin board with our families. Due to everything going on, we were unable to finish it. However, most students were able to create themselves doing their favourite winter activity. I wanted to share this as everyone did such a fabulous job! 























In terms of some work students could do at home based on the bulletin board, I thought I would include some ideas:

Word Work:
How many little words can you write using the letters from:

spring break

ie. in, king, big. . . 

Writing: 
-write about what activity they're doing and why its their favourite.
-how do they stay warm during this activity?
-why is their activity more fun than another? (ie. skating vs. sledding)
-use lots of descriptive words to describe the whole bulletin board 


Math:
-skip count to count how many people they see 
-create a math problem! 
(ie. 6 children went skating on the pond. 3 brought hockey sticks. How many children came without a hockey stick?) 

Science
-Have a conversation and go on a tour in your home with your children about ways in which the temperature in homes and buildings can be adjusted (winter and summer) ; e.g., by turning a thermostat up or down, by opening or closing windows, by using a space heater in a cold room.
-Then they could draw and label a picture and show you what they learned! 

If you complete any of this work with your child and would like to share it on the blog you are more than welcome to send it to me and I can post it.

I hope everyone is doing well and staying positive during these uncertain times. I miss everyone so much and appreciate all of the support you're providing your child/children with at home. 


From, Miss. Caughey 😺
