Families, please remember that we have our school bake sale on Friday, Dec 13th. All treats will be prepared by our PLP class and will cost 25 cents each. Students will have the opportunity to visit the bake sale and purchase their items. Grade 1 and 2 students continued their respective work on their Patterns Unit today. Grade 1s continued practicing changing patterns with letters, remembering that the same shape receives the same letter. Grade one students have now practiced changing patterns with both letters and numbers so that they can determine if a pattern matches. Have your student work on the extension question below: Grade 2 students continued with their work of writing pattern rules for patterns that have more than one attribute change. Grade twos are using very specific vocabulary during these lessons to describe patterns. Students can practice these at home by quizzing their families. Have them create a pattern, hidden from sight, and then describe their pattern to a family member. The family member tries to recreate the pattern based on the rule provided. See how close you can get! We also talked more about our lesson with Constable Hartmann from yesterday. Students read the book "It's Okay to be Different" by Todd Parr and then complete some snowflakes to show how unique they are as individuals. See some of the beautiful work below! We also used our knowledge of shapes and Polar animals to create some animal shape art today! Students are learning shapes and patterns can be found within any natural object, including animals! Students we tasked with using only 2D shapes to create one of the Polar animals we've looked at in science. This was an art + science + math activity!
