Rainbows

I hope that you had a fabulous weekend.  Once again we have jumped right into another school week.  We wrapped up a portion of our Community unit in Social Studies today.  Each student should have their booklet in their homework folder to show you tonight.  These booklets should be returned to school afterwards so that they can go into our portfolios.

Now that we have a broad understanding of Community and a good sense of our own Community in Winnipeg we are going to head over to Nova Scotia and take a look at life on the Atlantic ocean.  This should give us a good picture of the diversity in our Country.

I hope you had a chance to take a look at our Resurrection Story crosses that were on the bulletin board last week.

Grade 1s are just finishing a math unit on numbers to 100.  We have worked hard at counting by 2s up to 30, 5s up to 100 and 10s up to 100.  These are concepts that you can practice at home.

Grade 2s are working hard at learning strategies to add double digit numbers to 100.  So far so good.  We are relying heavily on a solid understanding of tens and ones.

Watch for our 3D rainbow art in the hallway!  Have a great week.
