Week 33-34 Communication

Dear Grade 2 Parents,

We hope you are well and enjoyed the holidays this week. We are excited to know that all our parent community will get the chance to finally come into the Grade 2 classroom for the Student Led Conferences on May 16th to share some of the student learning. It will be great to have you!

This Past Week was short but sweet. As part of their inquiry into scientific investigation, the students spent time thinking about the kinds of things that scientists do, and the skills that scientists use to help them be successful.  The students also began learning about some of the many different forms of scientific study there are in the world, and designed their very own ideal scientist character that they will use later in the unit.

Students enthusiastically took part in drawing cartoons this week in celebration of Cartoonist Day.

The Week Ahead the students will be inquiring into the three main states of matter, and the differences between them.  Next week our students will also spend a lot of time reflecting on previous learning experiences and preparing to share their learning with their parents as part of the Student Led Conference. It should be a lot of fun!

Cartoon Character Exhibition will be next week.  We have many talented young artists in Grade 2, and they’ve put together some great cartoon character examples together. It will be fun to see them all in one place.

Thanks as always for your support.  We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Best regards,

Jordan, John, Jessica, Pik, Nook, and Cash
