For word work, the grade 2's were introduced to the "-ing" ending and went on an "-ing hunt" while they were reading. The grade 1's finished with their "-an" word family. Here is a list of the "-an" words we have been working with (students are encouraged to continue practicing "-an" words at home):
The grade 1's then moved on to learning about the "-ap" word family.
Then in gym we had our first go at playing some basketball games.
We had two rules to follow: (1) must only take the ball when it is out of someone's hand - cannot touch any other player, and (2) must dribble the ball while moving across the court - cannot run with the ball held in your hands.
