Place Value Song

Today, we had a great field trip to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.  They learned much about percussion instruments!  In addition to this, there was even more learning today and students worked on their self-regulation.  Prior to the trip, we created a new C-chart for being 'OUT IN THE COMMUNITY'.  Students created the action criteria and it was made very clear to them what their expected behaviours should look like. This in turn helped them self-regulate during the entire field trip and everything went as expected! Well done to the students of division 1 and 2! You reached one of the learning intentions!

IMPORTANT: 

• Bring some coloured tiles to school so you can create a unique mosaic mirror!
• Bring your $4 for the ART supplies!

• Write a paragraph about the field trip to the symphony (This may be used for the Alphabiography)
• How were you able to self-regulate so well during the field trip today?
• What was the trip like? What did we do?
  
• Add complexity by including in thoughts, feelings, sights, smells and what you heard. 

         SUCCESS CRITERIA:
          1.) Paragraph format
          2.) Use as many writing tips form our lesson as possible
          2.) Includes at least 2 points from our 'IN THE COMMUNITY' C-Chart that you focused on and an
