In the classroom this week ...

In our class students are using comfortable seating throughout the day. 
On the photo below you will see students playing a game with directions. They have to follow instructions and draw specific pictures on their boards. It is a similar game to Battle Ship and something that you can play with your child during the weekend. 




Group work: Probability 
Group 1 worked on something that will absolutely happen ( certain) 

  • There will be animals at the Zoo.
  • Spring will come after Winter.
  • There will be 12 months in the year. 



Group 2 -worked on something that will never happen (impossible)

  • October will come after January 
  • A lion will be a student in our classroom.
  • There will be 9 days in a week.


   Recording facts from the group work 



Amauro shared with the class some of his ideas about probability.

Here are his examples: 

  • Watch the movie at the cinema. 
  • Play date with my friends.
  • Draw a jet. 
  • Go fishing.
  • Go to Cape town for a weekend. 
  • Go skydiving.
  • Sneak to the trampoline park at night.
  • Drive with no fuel. 
Can you match the probability words to those sentences? ( certain/possible, impossible, likely, unlikely, equal chance)


   Seesaw has great activities to support our spelling patterns (word sort )

Other activities on Seesaw regarding spelling pattern


Each day, students had a new task to do regarding the spelling words. 
Here are some examples of students creations. 




Students created a bridge for pedestrians using Lego. Practicing communication skills and creativity with a partner.
