le 27 fevrier

Bonjour

Please send a water bottle with your child to school daily! It minimizes the number of times they need to leave the classroom and ensures we are all staying hydrated!

At Teacher's Convention I attended a great workshop about Shaker dice. They are a lot of fun (and quite noisy haha) but we have been using them in the classroom to reinforce our mental math skills.

3 ideas to try tonight with the shaker pictured above:
1- go along the path and double die
2-what do you need to add to each die to get to 10?
3-can you add neighbouring dice? Can you add three dice in a row? Advanced: can you add the entire row? What strategies can you use to make this easier?

If you would like to come in on a Friday morning to learn some Math games to support your child at home, I'm planning a morning of centers. Please email me if you are interested. I'll send out a survey to parents with available dates.

In Science, each child used a picture of a animal to identify it as sauvage or domestique, as well as what it's body is covered in (des écailles, de la peau, des plumes de la fourrure). See yesterday's Blogger for the English translations. Ask your child about their animal.
