Dear amazing families,
This week we:
* We watched 2 Mojo videos and 1 travel kids.
- We learned about neurons in the brain. To grow your brain you have to learn challenging things.
- Mojo also taught us that it is okay to ask for help, mistakes are good. We also learned to say, "I can't do it YET!"
* In writing we have been learning some descriptive words. Sometimes we call them fancy words. Yesterday we found fancy words for little (teensy weensy, tiny, small), ran (sped, dashed, sprinted) and said (answered, replied, yelled). Mrs. Marta would like us to use fancy words in our writing.
* In gym this week we played Dungeon Ball, Squirrel Tag, Pirate Battle, Skittles and Diamond Tag. We also practiced throwing at the targets on the wall.
* At reading sometimes we read with a grown up. Some people are doing book clubs and the others are reading their own books. We also do book studies in reading.
* This week we got postcards from Germany and the Czech Republic. We sent postcards to the U.S.A. and The Netherlands.
* In music we are practicing songs for the winter concert. Our finale is "When Will the Holidays Come?". We are also doing a song with another class and we are doing "Rock n' Roll Snowman".
* Tuesday was fun pizza lunch day! We had mini pizzas.
* In science, we are making life cycles of a frog.
* In math we are learning how to do addition with partitioning. Some people started learning how to do addition with expanded form this week.
We hope you enjoy the weekend.
From,
Mrs. Marta's creative grade 2/3 class
