Monday is orange shirt day in the TDSB. Please read the post below, explaining the significance of wearing an orange shirt to school. We will be viewing some age-appropriate texts on Monday as well.
As you know, we have been studying geometry in Math this month. We have been looking at all sorts of different 2d and 3d shapes. Recently, we looked at some examples of Islamic art and architecture that featured several geometric patterns. We love the symmetry and design in these pieces. We are currently creating our own ‘Tiles of Infinity’ project, inspired by the beautiful Islamic artwork seen in class.
On Thursday, your child will bring home their most recent writing assignment, a retell based on the book, “The Little Red Hen”. Please review the feedback I have provided and the success criteria as well. Below are two examples (a Grade 1, then Grade 2) of grade-level retells. These students have a received a B on this assignment and have met most of the success criteria. You can review these examples with your child as well. Next week, we will be doing our final retell where I will evaluate and assign a writing mark. Thanks for your support!
Grade 2 students are learning to identify edges, vertices and faces on 3d shapes. Check out the chart we made in class! You can practise counting at home!
