Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! We had a great week of learning in Grade 2. We finished our first novel study, The Year of Billy Miller. Ask your child what their favourite part was of the book. Our class learned about bees and the different jobs a bee has within the colony. Ask what the "waggle" dance is! On Thursday we learned about apples and the different varieties, did you know there are over 4,000 different kinds? Students then got the opportunity to work with a partner to make an Apple Trapper out of paper and masking tape. Some inventions worked great, others needed some tweaking and others just needed more time to get it to work. I am proud of their reflections and team work. Everyone was able to express their needs at wanting a turn and sharing their ideas. Have a great weekend.
