 Happy Skipping Week!!  In literacy this week, we began work on persuasive writing.  We learned about the difference between an opinion and being persuasive.  We also learned about the structure of a persuasive piece, the what, why, why, why and what was that again.  We also brainstormed many different ideas and examples of how we can persuade our reader.  In word work, we focused on 'Bossy R' words.  We learned that when words contain a vowel and then an 'r' comes right after it, the 'r ' is very bossy to the vowel, and you can only hear the 'r' sound. In math this week, we focused on growing or increasing patterns.  We learned that growing patterns can be in shapes and in number sequences.  We also learned how to use an IN and OUT table to represent the pattern rule. We also worked on a word problem, based on a book called 'Two of Everything', and worked with partners to decide if they would like 1000 coins or 5 coins and a magic doubling ...

 The Ducklings have arrived!! This week in literacy, we started our Duck Diaries on the computers.  We read several stories that we based our diaries on, The Diary of a fly, The Diary of a Worm and The Diary of a Spider, they are written from the perspective of an insect, just as our diaries are from the perspective of a duck.  The grade two's and threes have done a wonderful job writing about what it might be like being inside the egg and then what it would be like hatching. In math this week, we began our measurement unit.  We discussed all the different ways we can measure things and where we use measurement in our daily lives.  We learned that there are standard and non-standard units, and each can be used to measure length and width.   We used our rulers and measuring tapes to measure items in nature.  We also did some Smarties math, reviewing fractions and graphing. In science, we started learning about Living Systems, how plants and animals...

Happy Trickster Week!! The grade 2/3's did a wonderful job on their 'Volcano' performance, In Literacy this week, we began some research about duck facts.   The grade 2/3's used websites and on-line books to learn about duck habitat, their diet, appearance and interesting facts.  Then we began taking our notes and rewriting them into an informational paragraph about ducks. In math this week, we continued learning about measurement.  The grade 3's compared the Metric system to the Imperial system and how we can use them both. The grade 2's continued using cm to measure different lengths.  Then we began discussing perimeter, the distance around the outside of closed shapes.  We draw a minecraft self-portrait and then found the perimeter of each body part. In between our Trickster practices, we took some time to take our ducklings outside into the grass.  We wrote our observations and sketched them playing and running. Looking Ahead to Next Week: 1. In Li...
