Our blog group this week is: Aksel, Reid, Lily, Katie, and Shawn
This morning we started with journals. Ms. Boyer showed us how to write different types of sentences to make our writing more detailed. We learned to start our writing with a sentence that tells the topic and then to add some sentences that give details about the topic. Then we learned to write a finish sentence to help wrap up the topic at the end. The grade 2 friends worked to do all these types of sentences in their journal to make a whole paragraph. The grade 1's worked to make sure they had a topic sentence and at least 2 detail sentences.
In math we finally got a chance to work on our 3D shapes project. Lots of us were very excited to work on our creations! For lots of us, folding the shapes nets is the hardest part.
This afternoon we did our buckbrush painting for our botany project. We tried to paint everything except the berries. Ms. Boyer is going to show us a special technique for painting the berries tomorrow.
In music we watched some videos of a band using school instruments and tools to play some famous songs. Then we worked on our Basia Bulat project. Today we got to tell Mr. O'Reilly which instrument we would like to learn to play.
Please remember that tomorrow is picture day!
