Animal Research

In grade 2, we have been discussing the different animals that can be found in different regions of the world. The students have been given a little assignment to complete. They have chosen an animal, that was not found in the textbook, to do a little research on. They need to know where it lives, what climate it lives in, what it likes and some interesting facts about the animal. The assignment is due: Friday, February 8th

Plays

The grade 2 and 3 students will start working on a little French play called L'hiver. The play is a dialogue between 2 children about their likes and dislikes.  The grade 3 students will also be working a an English play called, The Popsicle Man. It is based off their story the Gingerbread Man. The students will be bringing their plays home to read over their parts.

Social Studies

I decided to continue with Social Studies. In grade 2, we are learning about symbols, what they are. We are also learning about the various symbols countries (Kenya, Scotland, Peru, India, and Canada) have used on their flags and on their money.

In grade 3, we have been looking at the beginning of Ontario, while studying the First Nations, and the Early Settlers.
