Good morning Timberwolves! Please check your D2L. Please email me if you need your username and password. See you online!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

In Number Talks, students solve subtraction problems using a strategy called Counting On! To find the difference, students start with the subtrahend on a number line and add the amount of jumps needed to get to the minuend 📝

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Place Value Face Off allows students to identify the number of tens and ones in a given number, grade two students explore hundreds. Students are able to practice “reasonableness” by estimating how far apart the numbers are “Forty-two is greater than twenty-four by about twenty”

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students estimate, measure, and record the capacity of an object using a variety of non-standard units. Some students were so excited that they wanted to take a picture of their work and upload it to their portfolio! 📷📝

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students are using relational rods to estimate, measure and describe area. How much surface does the snake and/or newspaper photograph cover?!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students enjoyed a day being Scientists in the classroom. Thank you to all parent volunteers, and instructors for making this day happen.

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

A big thank you to Ms. Conway for sharing new strategies with DPA and number routines! The students enjoyed having you in our class. See you again soon.

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students are continuing to create a positive school culture (BIG 3) by participating in the 12 days of Christmas Kindness! 🎅🏻

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

“What do you notice?”, “What do you wonder?” Students are learning about time to the hour using a number line. They are also playing a game called One Minute to Win, where students roll a die over and over for a minute and count the number of 3s they get!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students are demonstrating the ability to read digital and analogue clocks through a scavenger hunt. They are also learning about adding two and three-digit numbers using a place value chart in Number Routines!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students build three-dimensional structures and describe the two-dimensional shapes the structure contains.

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Guided writing allows for students to see the stages of the writing process. Small group instruction allows for the teacher to provide individual descriptive feedback. Happy 🎃!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students are using Pegboards to reinforce Location in Math!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Students are creating Symmetrical Mosaic Designs to reinforce positional language (Gr.1), and compose/decompose two-dimensional shapes, e.g shapes within shapes (Gr. 2).

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

Math is everywhere! Students are learning positional language such as above, beside, to the right of, between and many more in an activity called Hoops Here, There, and Everywhere!

[Mr. Marone @StBasil2021]

As part of their culminating activity in Science, students are creating a wheel and axle (Gr. 2), and equipment for a playground (Gr.1)
