Dear Parents
Thank you to all the parents who joined us for open house this week. It was wonderful to see our Grade 1 community sharing their learning with their family and being the leaders.
Reminders:
- Please return library books on Wednesday to exchange
- Please send 1 container of Play-Doh for your child to use for fine motor and math activities
Science
This week, we spent time outside enjoying the beautiful weather as we transition from summer to fall. Our classroom looked closer at our first unit in science called Earth Systems, Understanding the changes of the living world. September 22 also marks the first day of fall. We concluded our week by acknowledging the land before students gathered outside to find a sit spot and quietly use their senses to gather information about the land at this time. Students then returned to illustrate and record their observations. We would encourage you to get outside, choose a favorite spot, and visit it throughout the year to observe the changes.
Learning Intentions:
Investigate cycles found in nature that inform First Nations practices.
Observe seasonal changes in local environments over time.
Discuss how changes in the appearance of environments, plants, and animals are related to the seasons.
Document signs of seasonal change over time.
