Dear Families,
This morning we had a run-through of our winter musical "The Big Chill". We also talked about our absorbency science experiment from yesterday and moved water drops together and then tried to split them apart. Ask me which was easier and why. We finished the morning with guided reading and literacy stations.
This afternoon we did some skip counting patterns in math and labelled our Inuit artifact sketches with the correct titles. We talked about what each artifact was actually used for. Ask me what an ulu is and how it is used. We did cosmic kids yoga...it was about "Parsnip the cat".
Toy Sale:
Students will have time to shop with their class during the day on Thursday. Students may bring in their money to buy items or they can make a donation if they would like. The items are usually between $1-5 each and the sale will be in the learning commons this year.
Stephen’s Backpacks!
It is that time of year again to start going through your child's toys and books. The grade 1s will be hosting a TOY AND BOOK SALE to support Stephen's Backpack Society on November 24, 2016 for the entire day. Please send in any gently used toys and/or books starting on November 21. We will also accept cash donations. All of the money raised this year will be used to purchase backpacks filled with items like books, toothbrushes, and toys for children that live on the streets in Calgary. For more information about this program please go to the Stephen's Backpack Society at http://www.stephensbackpacks.com.
Reminder: No school for students this Friday, November 25 or December 2.
Have a great evening!
Love,
The Grade 2's
