W.I.T.S

We are so lucky that Mrs. Lowe came to talk to us about using our W.I.T.S. to help us solve problems.

W - walk away

I - Ignore

T - Talk it out

S - Seek help

We have been practicing using W.I.T.S at recess and in our classroom.  We are getting really good at it! Room 16 decided to make a comic to teach others how to use their W.I.T.S.  We used Comic Life on our iPads to choose one of the W.I.T.S.  Here are some of Room 16's awesome creations!!

Digging for Dinosaur Fossils


Today we were palentologists! We used hammers, picks, and paint brushes to discover dinosaur fossils. We learnt that we have to be very careful and take our time. Once we clean our fossil off we documented it by drawing a picture and writing the name of the dinosaur. We had a GREAT time!

Dinosaur Tracks

Some dinosaurs went through our school and left some footprints. Students wanted to find the biggest print by using straws, meter sticks, paper clips and cubes to measure length.  What dinosaur do you think had the biggest footprint?

The Counting Game

SKIP COUNTING IS FUN!

Students have been learning how to skip count by 2's, 5's and 10's. We have been singing songs and practicing using the app, "The Counting Game" where kids can skip count in a fun way.  It is free and a really good learning tool for school or home.
