Dear Families,
Today we started our day with a small writing activity for 'Mindset Monday'. We had to answer the question "What is one challenge you hope to overcome this week?" We discussed what this means and gave some very thoughtful responses. Ask me what I am working on this week.
In Math we spent some time writing out 2 and 3 digit numbers in expanded form. 47 = 40+7
192 = 100+90+2 Some of us went on to expand 4 and 5 digit numbers!
In Social Studies we discussed some of the new Inuit vocabulary we have learned and then we wrote the words down with its corresponding picture.
This afternoon we had sharing circle and writing time. In writing we spent time as a group labeling a Fall picture and then we each got our own picture to label. We tried our best to use descriptive words and to write down what we actually saw in the picture. It was a very good first effort :)
*Reminder- Science School is December 5-9....we still need a lot of volunteers in order for our class to go.
If you are able to commit to a specific day that would be great! We require 5 volunteers/day!
Have a wonderful evening:)
Love,
The Grade 2's
