Families, please check your student's backpack for a yellow notice regarding Rosscarrock's School Cultural Night on February 12th! If you would like to share your culture with the school, please sign up and return the form by February 4th! Please also see information below regarding a free info session on screen time for children For grade ones, math was about reinforcing the concept of more before we moved on the the concept of less tomorrow. Students worked in pairs to find how many more today. Using a number line, students can practice at home too. Ask them to find: - 2 more than 5 - 3 more than 4 - 3 more than 7 - 1 more than 8 or any other combination to test their knowledge! Grade 2s worked on finding the distance around an object today. Students practiced counting the sides of an object in order to measure (give a number to) the distance around it. Like the below: This student's distance was 12. Students can even make an addition sentence to show the above: 4 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 12. Have your student practice with the below: Students also worked on finding their way in Social Studies today. As we prepare for (a make believe) trip to Iqaluit, we wanted to ensure that we won't get lost! Students learned all about the compass rose today. We used our directions for find answers to clues about Canadian landmarks. Students also built their final house for our Three Little Pigs books study in science. Students were able to use a fastener to create paper houses with three criteria: a wall, a roof, and a door. Students were finally able to create a 3D house, showing us that the fastener was vital in creating a proper object!
