Language: We have been using our creativity to solve a Fairy Tale mystery. We then had to compose a business letter pretending to be a character from the mystery. We are now working on creating our own Fractured Fairy Tales. I can't wait to hear them all.


Math: We hit the ground running with our Fractions unit. Today, as a fun activity, we used Skittles to practice what we know. See the pictures below and take a look on SEESAW for more. 


Science: We have learnt SO much. Ask your child to explain what a NEURON is and to show you with their arm the different parts!
