Today we had Gym with Mr. Costa and had several visitors from China observing the class. After recess, we worked on composing songs using poems as inspiration. Some students even performed their pieces..
After lunch, we did an art activity. We continues with our work focusing on line and colour. We drew different leaves on paper and then using a collage technique applied warm coloured tissue paper, to make our leaves look like fall leaves. Our second step was to paint black and white wavy lines and a background. Next week, we will apply the leaves and have a finished product.
Last period, everyone was asked to choose two books for the weekend. I sat with each student to make sure one of the books was at their level and could be read independently.
HOMEWORK: Study Spelling Lesson 4.
Reading Response. Choose from the books taken home to read and write a response using
the sentence starters at the front of the Reading Response notebook.
