Hello Room 8 families,
What has been going on in Grade 1? Well...
In the winter we learned about behavioural animal adaptations which are what animals do to help it survive in its habitat such as hibernation and migration!
Now that it is spring and lots of the animals are out of hibernation or back from migration we are focusing on structural animal adaptations which is when animals have physical features (body parts) that help it do well in its habitat.
Some adaptations we've discussed so far are animal:
Teeth
Claws and Webbed Feet
Beaks
Check out below some of the new work choices we have that focus on a bird's structural adaptations. Ask your child what they've learned so far and maybe to explain these photos to you!
Library Books
Today students are bringing home their library books! We have library every Monday afternoon, so books should be returned on or before Monday each week. Students can keep their books for 1 week.
Today we discussed how to be responsible with the library books (i.e. Being gentle, keeping them in a safe place, not losing them, etc.) If books are damaged or lost, there will be a cost to replace them. We are so excited to finally be sending library books home again for students to enjoy with their families!
