Radial Symmetry Art = Amazing!

[LearningwithMs.K @learningin211]

Today we shared the marble mazes we made in a team STEM challenge. Ask your child what they learned and what they found challenging in the process!

We made up our own lyrics to a familiar song and sang it in a round! 🎵🎶 @learningin211 @MsJWong1

This is a glimpse of part 1 of our radial symmetry paper relief art sculptures. They should be finished next class - stay tuned for the finished products!

Today’s math centres were game-based, to reinforce the students’ understanding of multiplication and division concepts and get them talking through different strategies they have for solving. Practise can be fun! (There are activities and games posted on the Google classroom).

Today we read The Snail and the Whale. We are learning how to ask deeper thinking questions as we read. Here are a few of the questions the students asked, and the answers to their interesting questions.

We are currently exploring multiplication and division concepts. Here are some examples of how you might see or hear your child thinking through a problem.

For our introduction to sculpture making lesson, students experimented with making shapes and adding texture.

Students rotated through a variety of fitness centres today working on building their strength, cardio health, and flexibility. Ask them which exercises were their favourites, and which were the most challenging!

[LearningwithMs.K @learningin211]

@inspirekiddos Our classes made some very interesting structures!

[Kim Lavis @inspirekiddos]

Taking our math and art outside, with @learningin211 . Ss were challenged to make the most creative sculpture using a variety of 3D solids. Which ones can you find?

Math congress - when our students share their work, solution, and/or thinking while other students ask questions, make connections, add on, or provide a different strategy for solving the problem. We are all mathematicians in here!

For Kindness month, our students made heart art and decorative bags. We have also written secret messages of appreciation to each other for the past two weeks! All around the school, kids are getting tickets when they are “caught being kind!” Our mission = spreading kindness!

[LearningwithMs.K @learningin211]

In Math today, our grade 3s were each sharing the properties of 3D shapes, while the grade 2s explored 2-d shapes, building virtual and pattern block play structures and then discussing the shapes they used!

[LearningwithMs.K @learningin211]

We also attended a multicultural museum that was brought into our own library!

[LearningwithMs.K @learningin211]

Here is a display just outside our classroom for all students to interact with by sharing their learning and wonderings.

Our students participated in two Martial Arts workshops this week! The students worked hard, showed respect to their “Sifu” (teacher), tried new ways of moving their bodies, and had fun! The demonstration in this video is from @wulintigers account on Instagram).

Today we had our PJ day party! Students worked as a team to fill up our Star Jar, by showing great focus, teamwork, co-operation, listening, participation etc. They worked as a group towards this reward for a few months! The jar is now empty and ready for more stars!

Edit for post: the instructors teach at wulintigers - demonstration was in our school gym
