Mr. M
Today we got back into the swing of things. The students were eager to share their weekend experiences with each other. We should see them on the blog tomorrow.
Please be advised that the dental screeners were in today to see the grade 2's and an envelope went home with each one.
Please ask your child for their pizza order forms which also went home tonight. They are due back no later than Monday morning. The following picture is the pizza order in case yours was lost/destroyed.
Have a great night!
Today we wrote letters to the Easter Bunny. The students are trying to be very careful to use capital letters when they are required. We are also focused on using the proper punctuation for every sentence. You will be able to find these letters on Kidblog.org once they are edited and published tomorrow.
We began to learn about mass today. The boys and girls had a great discussion about the factors that effect the mass of an object. We went through a demonstration where the students had to predict what object would have a greater mass.
Here are a few shots of the students hard at work.
Today we had a good literacy block where the students worked on their oral communication skills telling us about their weekends.
