Today we started as usual with our reading stations and morning routine. We are becoming much faster at being able to find our reading station independently. Then we did a new literacy center called discovery center.
Ask me what we examined today. We even got to use magnifying glasses! We also worked on sketching and labeling like scientists. Next we had snack and sharing time. After that we went to the gym. We are getting so good at our warm ups! Then we had a music and ketchup flip flop. In the afternoon we started with singing and then we worked some more on our larch trees in our sketchbooks. Next we went to the Learning Commons for an orientation from Mr. MacKenzie. We got to explore the space and even check out some books! Books can be returned whenever you are done. We do not have a set library day. Student will have an opportunity to check out books when they go to reading stations in the learning commons on a rotating basis, starting next week.
