In Reader’s and Writer’s workshop we will be: 

  • Exploring features and constructing poems. 

  • Being a communicator about reading, book recommendations and my reading choices. 

  • Participating in reading conferences and setting goals for our reading 

 

Mathematics: We will be exploring shape and symmetry, through our dance moves. Our number focus will be on division and number patterns. 

 

Unit of Inquiry: We have started our dance workshops – some love it, others find it challenging! We are focusing on showing our Learner Profile Attributes – particularly being Risk-Takers and being Open Minded. We will also reflect on different art forms and identify the relationship the art form has with the audience and its message. 

 

We will be presenting out dance piece in chapel THIS WEEK (Week 10). We will be recording it to upload to Toddle but would love to see you there. 

 

Reminders:
