Monday Sept. 14

 Happy Monday!

In writing today each class worked on another brain pocket page. Mrs. Taylor's class worked on their Fact Pocket and Ms. MacDonald's class worked on their Imagination Pocket Page.
We will use these pages during free write time and during our literacy blocks.

In math we continued to look for patterns on the 100s chart again - this time we put our skip counting skills to the test! We looked at the number patterns that we see when counting by 2s on the 100s chart.
Can you work with me on skip counting aloud by 2s?

In science we started our investigation into magnets! 
Many of us had fun this weekend looking for items around our house that magnets stick to! It was so fun to go over those today!
We then went around our classroom looking for items that are magnetic and items that are not.
Ask me what 3 things I found that we magnetic and what 3 were not magnetic.

Unexpected Fire Drill

This afternoon we had an unexpected fire drill and the grade 2 students did a fantastic job at exiting the classroom and standing quietly in line outside!

Mrs. Taylor's and Ms. MacDonald's class had music - ask me what we learned in music today.
