Today's Adventures and reminder re Halloween/Flashlights

Spooky Flashlight Reading and Halloween Parade Tomorrow!

Reminder:  Children can wear costumes tomorrow for Halloween.  Please no scary makeup, face masks or weapons.    Kids should also bring a flashlight for their literacy group.




Today we had a fire drill and the students did well.  

Math: The grade ones continued to practice their repeating patterns and identifying errors that others have made in their patterns.  The grade twos were exploring increasing and decreasing patterns by using a T chart.  



Social Studies
We continued our conversation about changes in our families.  Today we focused on Moving.  We read a book called A Kiss Goodbye by the same author as the Kissing Hand.  We talked about feelings, positive and negative changes that occur when we move.   

*****Reminder that there is NO school on Friday November 1 as it is a PD day!

Such a fun last day for me with the class! We had a fun flashlight party with our new little books, David's Father by Robert Munsch . And most fun of all, the gerbils got to explore their amusement park we built them. Some videos and photos are below! I hope the students had as much fun as I did today. Wishing everyone a wonderful break and  see you in the new year! Love, Ms. McCullough

Story Writing

Today we finished our first story! We began with brainstorming characters and settings and descriptive words for both. We came up with ideas for either a lost story or a stuck story. We thought of 3 ways our character  could try to solve the problem, finally solving it on the third try! Then we came up with interesting ways to end our story such as the character's feelings, a lesson learned or a reflection. We are very proud of our hard work and look forward to sharing our stories at conferences with you in March!
