Teacher’s corner:

Math: Our number talk today was on addition and subtraction. Students were presented with the following questions:

The result of the sum is 240. How can you get the result?
The result of the difference is 240. How can you get the result?

Students also had a chance to play Q-bitz, a math game that is a perfect combination of patterns and geometry.




Science: Students spent time brainstorming ideas about what their shoe box houses or buildings can have that show all the concepts we have studied. Some examples are: elevator, garage door, fire place, Christmas lights. A full list of ideas will be compiled and given to students.

1.    Ski forms are due tomorrow.
2.    Crazy hat day is on Friday.
3.    Thank you for all the shoe boxes and some Christmas lights!
4.    Today we helped our Grade 2 reading buddies to make hats for Crazy hat day.
