Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays to all the grade 2 families! We have had a great first half of the year and I look forward to the adventures ahead in the New Year. I sent this video link to your email but some kids hadn't seen it so here it is again. I would love for you to make one of your own and send it back to me!

Gingerbread Man Hunt!

Today we had a gingerbread hunt! The gingerbread man in one of our stories ran right out of the book and left clues for us to find him. When we found him he was with his brothers in a container full of cookies! Each of us got to decorate a cookie and then we made a tally of where each child took their first bite. It was really fun.

This Week at School

We were very busy today with Daily 5, portfolios, snowflakes, music and buddy reading so we are doing TWAS together on the blog. We will also have a copy of this in our duotang so you can write back.

This week at school we got two more postcards. One was from Mrs. Claydon and one was from Brooke's Mom. Mrs. Claydon's was from Edmonton and Brooke's Mom's was from San Diego. We put a sticker up on the map where the postcards came from.

This week at school we started a Christmas Orange Tally. We put a tally for every orange we eat in December. So far we have 41 since Wednesday. Please count your Christmas oranges over the weekend and mark them in your agenda.

This week at school we made snowflakes out of pattern blocks. We put it on a paper. Miss Dent took a picture of it. We made our own and none of the snowflakes were the same. No snowflakes are the same and all snowflakes have six sides except a few have three.

From,
Miss Dent's Class :)

The Colours of Snow

Recently we did an art activity using bleeding tissue paper and snow. We think the results are awesome! You can see the artwork in the display case at our school and in the slideshow below.
