Reminders for Next Week and Next Month!!

Hi folks!

So once again I just wanted to remind you that each student needs to bring in 1 bed sheet for next week, March 28th to April 1st.  Sorry for the confusion but the sheet can be ANY COLOUR, and ANY SIZED, and please make sure it's a flat sheet and not a fitted sheet.  What are we doing with these sheets you may ask?  I have NO idea, but I'm sure it'll be something very cool :)

Also, we are having our Insulation Challenge on Monday morning! The students are very excited about this and I'm really excited to see what we can come up with. I promise to take some photos and put them up on the blog!

Some exciting news!! We have partnered up with a school in Digby, Nova Scotia to learn more about life out on the East Coast! This week, your student wrote a letter to another student in Digby, asking them about their life, their school, their activities, and their community.  I am sending the letters off today, and we're crossing our fingers for a fast response from our faraway Grade 2 penpals!  Hopefully they can teach us a bit more about their Acadian Community, and we'll be able to relate to them through what we are learning in Social Studies.

I am so proud of the work we have been doing with our Jane Yolen "Owl Moon" unit. Student's Owl Moon journals will be coming home soon, so please watch out for that! 

Grade 2E has 7 students in MMH's Run Club!! I feel like we really represent the Grade 2 population when we're out there!  Reminder for those students that we run Monday/ Wednesday right after school.

Also reminder to those in Junior Choir that there is NO junior choir on Monday.
