learners today, leaders tomorrow!

How long is our snake skin from Richard the snake?

Mariela made a snake 33 turtles long.

Dawit made a snake 55 teddy bears long.

We learned that snakes eat everything! The snake ate 10 elephants, 9 trucks, 8 trees, 7 pants. 6 umbrellas, 5 pumpkins, 4 clocks, 3 glasses, 2 forks and 1 penny. – Dawit (Nursery)

I am learning alphabets and number and about snakes.  I know AABAAB. This is my pattern – Sabrina (Nursery)

We are learning words. we are learning sight words and we are learning to write sentences.  We learn when we play. 

This week we started to learn about how to take care of the environment. Reduce, reuse, recycle.  We watched a video and we saw that you have to stop littering, turn off the water and not waste paper. We are getting ready for a performance about this.

This week at school we used Dream Box to help us learn Math.

We are also learning about the water cycle.  Snow evaporates and goes up to the clouds, then it condenses and evaporates.  It takes days, months, years.

This week in room 203 we wrote down our wondering about electricity and magnetism.  We used different materials to learn about electomagnetism and we also made art with magnets.  We are also learning different forms of poetry.

We have been learning about static electricity and how it works.  Everything is made out of atoms.  The nucleus is inside the atom.  It is the centre.  The proton is the positive charge and the neutron is the negative charge.  The nucleus of the atom is positive and the electron is negative.  We have done some cool experiments this week that show this topic in action.
