May 6th

 Hello Parents,


It is hard to believe we are already a full week into May.  The end of grade two is going to be here before we know it!  


I have sent home the field trip forms today for the Leighton Center on May 30th.  You are asked to return the forms to school when you have them completed.  The payment of all field trips is now online.  I am still in need of one or two more parents to come and volunteer.  If you have the time and your volunteer clearance please let me know.

We also have teacher's pet coming up on Thursday May 26th from 9 to 11 am.  I have two parents for that in school field trip but would like to have one or two more.  If you are available please let me know.  

This week in Math we are circled back to 2D shapes and 3D objects.  Our focus has been on sort shapes using different attributes. 

In Science, we have finished our Exploring Liquids unit.  This week we finished water cycle diagrams, played review jeopardy and did a show what you know.  Next week will be starting our last unit of Boats & Buoyancy. 

In Social Studies, we are continuing to look at Calgary.  We have also had some discussions about what it means to be a citizen.  Many students were excited to share where they were born and tell about being citizens of two places. 

In writing, we are continuing with main events.  This week students did some writing about spilled soup.  


I was very happy to see what the students were able to write and how much detail they added.  We did some sharing and so many students were excited to share what they had written.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms in room 17.

Mrs. Coulling
