Fantastic Friday!
Check out our incredible
futuristic transportation that will be displayed during Art’s Night in June!!!
We began the day having French with Mlle.
Jessica.
We then wrote our spelling test.
Next we were of to gym.
We then moved onto math. We learned about
perimeter today. We were first faced with a real life situation that showed us
the importance of knowing perimeter. Ms. Jaskolka posed the following problem:
You need to build a fence around your garden in order to keep any animals away
from your vegetables, how would you go about doing so? While working in our
table groups measuring tape on our desk, we realized that we would need to
measure each side but then we realized that we would also need to add all the
sides together to know how much fencing we would need; that’s perimeter!! We
then showed our understanding of perimeter in our math books.
Following first recess and lunch we began
working on our summative project. We have completed our role as a journalist
and now we are taking on the role of an author. We will be using our interviews
to help us write a story about someone who has migrated from another country to
Canada. We did an example as a whole of Grade 2:
We then began working on our storyboard,
getting all of our ideas organized. We will be using our storyboard to write
our story beginning on Monday.
After second recess and lunch we read
chapter 8 of The Borrowers. We then
had some sharing time.
At the end of the day, we had the important
task of cleaning up our schoolyard! We had fun while helping the planet!!!
