Christmas Concert News!

Our annual Christmas Concert is on December 9th!  All I need from your cutie is 1) a FLASHLIGHT (preferably a tall one, not a big cube!  2) to show up looking nice, whatever you want them to wear for a Christmas concert!

*That is all the info you get!  LOL

What a beautiful start to November!
















What kind of learning is happening?

Overview of our studies!

Language Arts:   

Weekly Words will continue to get a bit more difficult.
Word Quiz every Friday (or the last day of the work week).

Writing conventions: 
Grade 2 is working on periods, commas, and quotation marks. 
Grade 3 is working on Paragraph writing and the steps in answering multiple choice questions such as those present on EQAO.

Math:

Data Management
Grade 2: Collecting and organizing data. Presenting information in simple graphs, such as bar graphs and picture graphs.  NEATNESS counts!  Grade 2s need lots of reminders to use a ruler when working on graphs!
Grade 3: Collecting, organizing, and presenting data.  Grade 3s will look at many types of graphs.  They will be working on a project where they compose a question, collect the information, make a graph, and analyze the data.  
Both grades will have technology incorporated into this Data Management unit.  Lots of fun, hands-on discovery!

I am so happy the labour situation is ending!!  It has been stressful. Now we can get back to business and have a great year!  Please check our classroom blog regularly for updates. I will try to keep the blog up to date so you always feel informed. As usual, please send a note in your child's agenda or email me at amcintyre@scdsb.on.ca and I will respond.
