This week our blog team is: Josie, Aiden, Ashton, Cedar, and Taylor.
This morning we started with journals. Lots of us went sledding and toboganing this weekend. Lots of us also stayed home and watched movies.
In word work, the grade 2's are doing a special project with the poem In Flander's Field. The grade 2's are practicing their printing and finger spaces by copying the poem and then they will work with a buddy to learn to recite the poem in a strong speaking voice. The grade 1's worked on printing the letter K.
After that we had math. Today we started learning about graphs. We are going to make smarties graphs using the charts we made last week. We learned that a good bar graph has to have a title, labels for the categories along the bottom, numbers up the sides, and neat towers or bars.
At lunch Josie was very excited because her tooth fell out! The rest of us were excited for the snow, but it took some of us a long time to get all of our outdoor gear on!
This afternoon we tried to finish up our Nose Hill posters. Today we focused on getting the facts and discoveries written down. Some of us got to work in the library, but only if we had most of our facts already recorded.
Our helper tomorrow is: Aksel
Parents: We will be having a home reading information meeting tomorrow (Tuesday) at 3:45. At the meeting we will talking about some small changes to the home reading program this year and we will provide some guidance for those parents who are planning to come in and volunteer.
