Dear Families,
Today we started with reading stations and then we had class meeting time. Today in meeting we did circle of courage. After that we brainstormed describing words about ourselves. We are going to use these in a poem and art piece later. While we had snack Mrs. Stuart started a new chapter book with us called Who Was Leonardo? Then we had a short recess before we went to gym together. When we came back from gym we did some ketchup. After lunch we started with another chapter of our book and then we started to train our brains like Leonardo. We examined mystery objects and sketched them. We are trying to draw what we actually observe not what we think is there. Also we found out that Leonardo used lots of labels and wrote information all around his pictures to add more information to his notebooks. We are thinking about what materials are used what it might be for what it reminds us of. At the very end of the day we went outside to play a game because our teachers were so impressed by how hard we were working.
Love the Grade Twos
