Hello Parents,
We are still in need of one parent volunteer for Teacher's Pet May 26th 9 to 11 am and one parent for the Leighton Center May 30th all day. If you have a current police clearance and are able to volunteer please let me know.
This week we went outside for some visual journal sketching time. We took the time to sit in our sit spots and notice the signs of spring.
In Science we have started our Boats and Buoyancy unit. This week we looked at the key vocabulary, chose a boat to research and tested if things would sink or float.
In writing students have been working on writing main events. In grade 2, we are focusing on having a problem with 3 attempts to solve. We have focussed on why the first two attempts do not work and then having a third success attempts. Next steps will be looking at building suspense and an extended ending.
In math this week we look at sorting shapes by 2 attributes. We also talked about the vocabulary of faces, edges and vertex or vertices for 3D objects. This will continue next week.
Just a reminder that there is no school next Friday May 20th for a pd day and then Monday May 23rd is a stat holiday.
Have a good weekend,
Mrs. Coulling
