This morning the grade 2's didn't have guided reading. After the grade 1's finished guided reading we worked on our Whispering Woods paintings. Some of us finished our first painting and will start the second one tomorrow. If we finished early we got to start planning our second painting.
After recess we had word work. The grade 1's practiced the -ice family and the -ike family. In math we finished our pattern check. Now we are finished with our study of patterns and are moving on to our study of counting and counting patterns.
In the afternoon we started researching arctic clothing. We learned about the types of clothing the Inuit wore and even learned some of the Inuktitut words for the clothes. Did you know that a parka is called a qulittaujaq and snowpants are called silapaak in Inuktitut? One that a few us knew was Kamik which means boots. We didn't have time to start the work in our books because we had to do all the research about the clothing so we spent the last 15 minutes trying to finish the transportation and shelter pages.
Then we had library. Please remember to bring your books back if you forgot today. In gym we did more 3-on-3 hockey games. Today we had new teams.
Please remember tomorrow night is the Festive Evening!
Our helper tomorrow is: Reid
