November 9th - 13th
First things first! Please make sure to read this important message about next Monday!
Hello Le Roi Daniels!
Although it may be dreary, grey and gloomy outside, here at Le Roi Daniels we are always cheerful and full of brightness.
On Monday November 16, we are going to bring colour and joy to our school by having a casual day where students can wear ANY colour of the rainbow.
This is one way to show our joy and remember we have a “ RAINBOW OF POSSIBILITIES” in our school.
Be as creative as you would like!
Thank you grade twos for a wonderful week of learning! We had a chance on Tuesday to take part in the virtual Remembrance Day and the students were respectful during all parts of the video commemorating those fallen soldiers who fought for our freedoms.
This week we have been continuing to work on descriptive writing and the importance of adding triple scoop words into each sentence we write to give our readers a clear picture. We have tried to personify snow and write as if we are snowing and the feelings people have as we blanket the ground and streets.
In Mathematics, we continue to look at place value and assigning values to numbers, be it in the ones or tens place. Students have also been comparing numbers and using symbols to express either greater than or less than. We have also created graphs and collected data to add into our bar or picture graphs.
In Science, we are wrapping up our unit on Small Crawling and Flying Animals and have explored the various ways that insects are able to protect themselves from their predators including camouflage and the bright colours tell predators to stay away. We also discussed the food chain and the importance that all parts must work in sync in order for the chain to remained balanced.
In Social Studies, we have discussed the activities to do in Iqaluit during both the summer and winter months. The students created bright posters inviting other people to come visit this northern community and find interesting things to try out including dog sledding or kayaking!
Have a wonderful weekend and look forward to seeing the rainbow of colours in class on Monday!
