Le mardi 

Le langage

This week’s sound is oir (w-are). Read and write the words in the cahier de vocabulaire p. 15. Then, use at least 3 words to write sentences below.

Les sciences humaines

Watch this video about P.E.I. Also, join Mme H on zoom at 10:30 to hear about P.E.I.

This week, we are learning about Prince Edward Island, l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard. Find P.E.I. on the map in your red sciences duotang. Colour and label. The province is small but the name is long! The name can be written in the Atlantic Ocean somewhere near the province. Then, draw a line to join the label to the island.

Les maths

Watch a video about les cubes. In the cahier rouge, complete p. 59. Imagine making solid shapes and look at the pictures. How many toothpicks and balls of modelling clay would you need to make each shape? At the end, draw or make your own shape and write how many short and long toothpicks or straws as well as balls you would use for your shape. Extra: Make each shape on the page if you wish.

Mini-projet

Use materials at home to make your own solid shape. Name the shape in French. (Look at p.56 for some shape names). Show and share your shape in a zoom meeting on Thursday or Friday. You might use: sticks and tape, paper and glue, play dough and toothpicks or even marshmallows. Be creative and have fun:)

Draw and write about what you appreciate in the nature around you this Spring. You can draw a picture in your journal OR watch this art video. For a challenge, can you make the art in the video but use some recycled materials or items from nature to replace some items in the art?

After you have finished your drawing or art, write! Here are some ways you might start your sentences:

Dehors, je vois… (Outside, I see…)

Au Printemps, j’aime… (In the Spring, I like…)

Dans ma cour, il y a… (In my yard, there is/ there are…)

You might also include some words from your Coup de Pouce.

Lundi

Langage

Our new sound of the week:

We have seen this sound many times! récréation (recess), collation (snack), natation (swimming). Remember to take a morning recess today and enjoy the Spring weather!

There is not a tion page in our vocabulary book, so write some commonly used words, and use them to write some sentences on p. 27 of the Cahier de vocabulaire. 

Maths

We have been practicing flat, 2D shapes in art: cercle, rectangle, carré, triangle. 

Next, notice where you see these shapes when exploring 3D shapes. Today, watch a video to get you thinking about shapes.

*Parent note: Our new math topic over the next couple of weeks will be shapes. Children should ALSO continue to practice adding to 100 in order to maintain and build their addition skills.

Mardi

Langage

Look for a new animal book in your assignments in Raz-kids. Also answer the quiz questions after!

Maths

Find chapter 3 in your cahier rouge. Complete p. 52 & p.53. On p. 52, draw a line from each form to the part of the sandcastle that was made with that form. On p. 53, draw a line from the shape to the common objects that resemble that shape.

AND / OR

Play Kangaroo Hop on math playground.

*Parent note: In gr. 2, children do not need to know many of the mathematical names for 3D shapes such as “rectangular prism”. However, I have found that many on-line math activities focus on the names. So, you can teach your child some shape names, or have him/her learn through trial and error. Some common names resemble English: cône, sphère, cube, cylindre. Prisms and pyramids in French also resemble the English: pyramide, prisme rectangulaire. So, in this case, learning some shape vocabulary at home in English will support the French.

Extras

Listen to a French animal story.

Play Tic Tac Toe with a family member in the house or a friend on video chat. If no one is available, answer the questions on the Tic Tac Toe Board. How to  play:

1. Copy the board onto a piece of paper (or get an adult to help).

2. The object of the game is to get 3 squares in a row before your opponent. A row can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal.

3. One person is “x” and the other is “o”, or you can choose two different coloured counters that you have at home.

4. Choose the square that you want. EACH PLAYER uses a scrap paper or whiteboard surface to copy the question and find out the answer. When both players are ready, show each other your answer. If they are the same, you get the square! If not, together figure out where the error is and whose answer is correct. If yours is not correct, you do not get the square.

5.Take turns choosing a square until someone wins!
