Our field trip has been rescheduled for Thursday February 7th. We are all very excited that we found a new time to go!
This week we have been busy working on paragraph writing. Grade 2 students should be able to independently write a six sentence paragraph by the end of grade 2. We have been creating sentences and sorting them to get us started. This is part of PWIM (picture word inductive model) that we use in the classroom. This term we focus a lot on writing and the blog is a great tool to maintain student interest. Please encourage writing at home as much as you can.
We are continuing with our Explore Plus 4 in math. This week we had Mrs. Gabriel, our learning resource teacher, work with the groups as well. Students seem to enjoy this structure of math and we are making excellent progress with this unit.
We will be starting our Liquids and Solids unit next week. Stay tuned for some science experiment talk from our classroom!
Next Week:
January 28th: Students may start bringing books for the book swap.
January 31st: Book Swap Day (bring a book and take a book)
January 31st: Fun in the Sun Day (dress in school appropriate summer clothing. Students will be going outside for recess so make sure that they bring clothes to wear over top of their summer clothes.)
February 8th: We will be celebrating the 100th day of school on February 8th. Some special homework will be coming home next week.
