This morning we finished off our round of literacy centers, then did some subitizing (recognizing at a glance) practice in math, showing the different ways we could see 8 broken up using a variety of visual formations. The students learned a new song about colours in French, then had some organization time to finish up work from the past week. We finished our day with a grade one and four buddies dance party.
Mail Pockets
- No new notices, so mail pockets remained at school.
- Home Reading went home, if returned to exchange.
Please and Thank You / Volunteer Opportunities

Daily Challenge
Thinking about the groups you belong to, what makes each of them a community group? What do you share? Is it a language, uniform, activity, where you live…?
