Good Morning Grade 2!

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2022! I hope that everyone had a good holiday and found some time to have fun, rest and relax!

Her are some activities to work on today.

Orange Homework Books

·    Read – Choose a book to read from the reading bag. Use your strategies to help with the reading and record the on the log sheet.

·    Spelling – Week 7 Words – The focus this week is on the short /i/ and /o/ vowel sounds. Go over the words, practice spelling them out loud.

·    Word Work – Short /i/ and short /o/ vowel sounds. Look at the picture, say the word, what vowel sound is missing? Fill in the vowel. Pick 2 words and write a detailed sentence for each one. Make sure your sentence begins and ends the right way.

Home Learning Pack – Week 1

·    Math – Warm Up – Count and Move! – Put on a Jack Hartman Video, or count and move on your own. Play the Snowman Bump math game with someone at home.

·    Math – Colour By Code – Sums to 10 – Solve each number sentence and put the answer in the space. Use the colour code to colour your answer and see what the picture is. Use your strategies to help with the answers.

·    Math - Work on some of your math facts. (Orange Sheet in your folder.)

   Writing – 6+1 Writing Traits – Organization – Getting Ready For Bed – It is important for our writing to be organized and tell things in order. Tell the steps you take to get ready for bed. Draw and colour a picture to go with each step. You can do the first 2 steps today and the next 2 steps tomorrow. Make sure you tell good details.

Technology/On-Line Programs

·    If you have access to a device and have some extra time, you can log on to Squiggle Park or Dream Box Math and play.

·    The codes were sent home earlier in the year, but if you don’t have them, send me an e-mail and I will send them to you.

Home Learning Kits

·    Just a reminder that you can also use materials from the Home Learning Kit that was sent home at the beginning of the year if you are looking for extra activities.

·    There are lots of math games you can play with your family too.

Outdoor Play – I think it is a little too cold to be outside today, so maybe you can do some exercises inside to get you moving. Check Mrs. Dickson’s page for some Phys. Ed activities.

I am available throughout the day by e-mail if you have any questions or need support with activities.    lisa.sullivan@nbed.nb.ca
