Week 11

Grade one parents,
Inquiry

This week we have been making our "traditions" lap books! Students chose a country they were interested in learning about and we have been researching the traditions from there.

We have been learning about different traditions around the world, and finding out if our countries are taking part in that tradition. We are also looking at traditional music, art, food, and clothing.

Arts

This week for art we started making our own traditional Aborigine pot. This was inspired by Beyza's inquiry into Australian traditions. 

In music, we have been looking at Japanese traditional songs and being introduced to musical bells.


Math

In math class, we have been working on counting to 20 and back to zero again. Our teamwork is really paying off! We are able to sort the numbers in 2 minutes by working together!




Language

Students have been learning how to do book reviews. Students will be doing this for homework every week and will be sharing them on Monday mornings.
