Dear Families,
Today we started with reading stations and morning routine. Then we read the middle section of our gingerbread book. We found out that all the action happens in the middle. Then we worked retelling the middle of the story in writing. After a quick snack we had literacy centers. And after literacy we did a December page in our sketchbooks. In the afternoon we had a fire drill! We are going to set a goal to be less chatty outside. When we came in we had gym together. After gym we did some more work with colour. We learned about tints and shades. Ask me what we did with them today. How do we make a tint? How do we make a shade?
Important reminders:
No school for students Friday Dec 4---professional day
The grade 2s will be hosting a TOY AND BOOK SALE to support Stephen's Backpack Society on December 3, 2015 for the entire day.
All of the money raised this year will be used to purchase backpacks filled with items liked books, toothbrushes, and toys for children that live on the streets in Calgary. Most items will be on sale for between $1-5 if you choose to participate.
