Unit of Inquiry This week during our Unit of Inquiry we looked at Fractured Fairytales! These are fairy tales told from a different perspective. One of our key concepts is perspective. We learned that perspective is when we look at something from a different point of view or when we have different feelings and opinions about something. We read the story "What Really Happened to Little Red Riding Hood, The Wolf's Story" by Toby Forward and Izhar Cohen and "The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig" by Eugene Trivizas. We discussed the similarities and differences between the story and the different perspectives the characters had. We also acted out some of our favourite stories. Math We also learned we had different perspectives/opinions on a lot of things! Each morning our question of the day asked us our opinion on something to do with fairy tales, we graphed our answers and then showed the data in tally marks. We practiced how to write tally marks more throughout the week. We also started learning different strategies for subtraction - or taking away, we will continue building these number skills through to the end of the year. Earth Day Thursday, 22nd April was Earth Day! Our celebrations lasted throughout the week when we made a play healthy restaurant with vegetarian food, read stories about the Earth and created posters out of recycled paper to help remind ourselves and our friends about what we can do to take care of the Earth everyday!
