Congratulations to our Grade 2 students who did an amazing job at skating on Tuesday afternoon. They all learned to skate and showed incredible perseverance. Well done!
I always like to take the kids out for the first snowfall of the year, and yesterday was a great opportunity to make some shapes in the snow! We made mostly 2d shapes, but created some 3D shapes as well.
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!
Today, I introduced the students to the Prodigy Math Game. It has been recommended to me by several other teachers as a fun (and free!) way to keep math practise going at home. I am able to program the content of the questions for the students, so that it aligns with what we are focusing on at school. Please see your child's homework folder for login and password information. As this is my first time using the program, please do give me your feedback! Please note that I am not asking you to buy a membership to the program. You can still enjoy Prodigy without paying anything, as far as I can tell. I know the ads can be frustrating, but I think the kids will get used to closing them when they come up. I did test the program myself, but only got a glimpse of the possibilities. Thanks and enjoy! http://play.prodigygame.com
