Group H (Mr. Dalderis)


Numbers, Colours, and 2-D Shapes/3-D Objects


Colours

We have been learning the names for various colours using a variety of materials and through a variety of activities. See how we have been learning!

We played a sorting game using toy fruits. We had to listen very carefully for the two step directions. First, we identified the colour of the fruits. Then, we had to listen for which coloured basket to place them in. For example, we placed red coloured fruits into the the orange basket. We will continue practicing the names of colours in different and exciting ways.

We are continuing to practice the names for various colours in many ways. We sorted different coloured objects into their appropriate spot in the container. We had to listen very carefully for the two step directions. First, we identified the colour of the object. Then, we had to listen for another colour to figure out which spot to place the object in. We took turns giving directions. We start by saying (Name) put pink in green.


Hands-on activities are helping us practice the names for various colours. We took turns giving directions. We gave directions by saying, "(Name) put your orange bead on".
 


Numbers and Colours

We have been continuing to build on our knowledge of colours and numbers in a variety of ways. As a challenge, we played against each other using ipads and the website Kahoots. We were shown a picture and had to determine the number fruits and/or vegetables in the picture. 



We wanted everyone to learn and feel successful, so we used our words to encourage each other to try our best. It was great feeling to get the right answer and we got pretty excited!


2-D Shapes and 3-D Objects

We have been learning the names for various 2-D shapes. First, we identified the shapes and counted the number of sides/points or no points/sides that each 2-D shape had. Then, we used wax sticks to recreate the shapes. We will continue to practice the names of 2-D shapes in different ways. We will also learn the names of different 3-D objects. Stayed tuned for more!


2-D Shapes and Colours

We are continuing to build on our knowledge of 2-D shapes and colours. We are were challenged to listen carefully to Ms. Pasion's directions. We had to listen for specific colours and shapes, and determine what parts of our picture we coloured in.

In the image above, students were asked to "colour the circles red". 


Common Phrases and Materials in the Classroom

We continued practicing the names for materials in the classroom and how to politely ask our classmates to borrow one of the items. We played a game we like to call "May I please borrow your...". Below is what we must say to each other.

In order to 'borrow' an item, we must say...

Person 1
"May I please borrow your ______?"
Gesture: smiling and eye contact

Person 2
"Yes you may."
Gesture: smiling and eye contact, and passing the item to the person requesting the item

Person 1
"Thank you."
Gesture: smiling and eye contact

Person 2
"Your welcome."
Gesture: smiling and eye contact



We have been learning about and practicing how to say common phrases in English. Below are some examples.
