Celebrating Dance and So Much More

There is always so much going on this time of year. This week the grade twos looked at the comptines "Bruno" and "Le crocodile" with the "br/cr" sounds. The grade threes began the story "Agnès l'araignée gagnante" with the "gn" sound. They did their brouillon (rough draft) for the procedural writing pieces they are working on.  

We are pretty much done the units on Air/Water and Soils in science and will be beginning our last units of the year. This week the grade threes examined different components of soil and then looked at three different mystery soils to try to figure out of what components they were made. The grade twos looked at water a little more closely and did a review of the different states of matter, specifically for water. They looked at different images and had to decide if the water was in a solid, liquid or gas state. 

In math, the class completed short tests on money. Rubrics for the unit will be sent home soon. They began time and did a few activities to review temperature. We will be continuing with time next week and quickly move on to fractions. 

On Wednesday, we joined many other Kingston schools at Fort Henry for Celebration of Dance. It was a great experience to be among the 3000 students that participated. 

I hope everyone has a great long weekend!
