Here it is -another new week May 17,2010.
The grade two class is active and well.
In language arts we finished the life cycle of the butterfly.Last Friday and today the students took a familiar book and wrote a different ending to the story. It showed that they are very creative. We will continue to expand their creativity as we will have a specialist visit our class to help with writing stories . This will continue for a few weeks.
In math we are finishing graphs. We will be concentrating on subtracting and adding. They love the flash cards we use when we are in line going out or to another class.
