Hello Families,

This week we have continued our learning about even and odd numbers. Students sorted their names looking at the amount of letters to determined whether they have an even or odd amount of letters. Students then shared their strategy with me to prove to me whether it was even or odd. 

Yesterday, we introduced data collection and data organization. Student went and surveyed the class on what eye colour they have. They then organized their data into categories with tally marks to demonstrate the number of different eye colours. Today, we took our data and put it into a bar graph. We talked about why we use a bar graph and how it is one way for us to show our data.

We have continued our work with the Circle of Courage. We have wrapped up our section on Generosity and have been working on Mastery. We have discussed what Mastery looks like, it can be mental, physical, social, or spiritual. We have also talked about how Mastery is based on personal achievement and having a growth mindset helps us to achieve our goals.

We are continuing with our letter and word work which will wrap up later next week. The following week we will be starting our spelling program. Students will receive words that are at their "just right" level so everyone's will be different. They will be doing word work at school daily in order to practice their spelling.
