Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from me and my small bunch of sillies on the last day before break yesterday!

Happy Halloween from Grade 2!!

[Vanessa Snow @MissSnow709]

Did you know that before pumpkins were widely available, people carved turnips and potatoes?

Today we learned all about the history of Halloween 🎃

So if your child comes home and asks to carve a turnip… let them!

Last week we made a Roll-A-Monster! Everyone got to roll a die and create a spooky monster. I also asked them to give their monster a name :)

It was super fun and everyone loved it! We have some really creative minds in grade 2!

Try it out!

We had a lot of fun today trying to figure out if oobleck is a solid or a liquid.

“But Miss, it’s both!!”

Under all that liquid is a pretty hard substance! If you pick it up and squeeze it, you’re left with a solid! Such a nice addition to our science unit ☺️

I finished my first week at @PearsonAcademy1 with a lovely group of Grade 2s! Today we recognized Orange Shirt Day by reading Stolen Words and talking about the history of residential schools. We also made these shirts to show that we matter because…

For their end of unit project, the grade 4’s created their own musical instruments! They had to be able to show different pitches and loudness on their instrument. Great job, friends!! ❤️

Last week for Pink Shirt Day we did an activity where our friend, Jaunita the Apple, got bullied pretty badly :( the kids saw the effects of bullying and learned that we can never undo the damage of hurtful words!
