Welcome Mrs.Lowe and a little from last week.....

Welcome to Mrs.Lowe!
Mrs.Lowe is a students teacher who will be working alongside myself, observing within the classroom, assisting as I see fit and even teaching a lesson here or there!
She started today and will be with us until  December 12th. We welcomed her today with a big GOD BLESS YOU and wrapped up our day with some kind, reflective comments. 

In the words of Grade 3 students.....

She is our new teacher!
She is a kind and generous teacher.
She is nice!
She is a helper around the class and she is very mindful of other people.


And a little snap shot from last week...

We did a fair amount of work to remember the veterans of our country. We read short stories about soldiers, sketched poppies, read a picture book written by children from around the world about what peace feels like, and then created our own rendition showcasing our sketching techniques.
In sketching students are working to create realistic representations of objects (living and non-living). Students are focusing on shape, size, texture and colour. In our Rememberance sketches we focused on shape, size and texture.















We then took our learning about patterns this past unit and applied it by searching for patterns within an addition chart of 0+0 up to 12+12.
Students colour coded increasing and decreasing patterns and any repeating patterns, using a legend to explain what they found.
