This morning we continued our Whispering Woods writing. We moved on to the "I feel..." part and tried to focus on including more describing words in our sentences. For grade 2's we also focused on adding a second idea to our sentences to make them more interesting and to help our readers build a more exciting picture in their brains.
In math we continued our pattern hunt from Tuesday. Our learning focus was to try to find, record, and label new indoor patterns. Many of us chose to work with a partner and tried to help each other solve problems with labeling and recording.
This afternoon Ms. Boyer had to go to a school board meeting. Mrs. Wilkens came to work with us. We worked on the arctic animal research that we started yesterday. After that we had gym and music.
Before Ms. Boyer left she reminded us that tomorrow is her big trip to Churchill, Manitoba! She won't be able to send us pictures while she is there because there is no cell service in Churchill. Ms. Boyer will plan to update the class blog on Saturday with pictures and stories from Churchill. Please feel free to check the blog on Saturday evening or Sunday to see the update!
