Good Morning Grade 2!

Happy Friday!! I hope that everyone had a good day yesterday! It looks like we are in for another cold day!!

Here are some activities you can 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 book on the log sheet.
• Spelling – Test - Week 8 - The focus this week is on the /o/ and /e/ vowel sounds that say their own name in shorter words. Use the test sheet in your pack and have someone at home call out the words for you. Spell them on the sheet. Good luck!!

Home Learning Pack – Week 2

• Word Work – Sight Words – Get out your sight Word lists from the original Home Learning Kit and see how many you can do.
• Math – Warm Up – Count and Move! – Put on a Jack Hartman Video, or count and move on your own. Try counting by 10s to 100 and backwards from 100.
• Math – Sheet – Numbers and Operations – Adding and Subtracting – Read the word problems and find the answer. Adding and subtracting number sentences. Use your strategies to find the answers.
• Math Game – Try  Snowman Bump or Math Card Game – What’s The Difference? Subtract – This one is in the purple Folder on the Math Card and Dice Games Board, in Your Home Learning Kit that was sent home at the beginning of the year.
• Writing – Making Your Own Book – There is a blank book to use in your pack. Continue writing and illustrating your book. Each page should tell one idea and the picture should be coloured and go with the writing on the page. Make sure your sentences begin and end properly. If you don’t get it all done, you can finish it up next week. I can’t wait to hear you read them when we are back at school!
• Read – Share a story book with someone at home or share one from Tumble Books. The link and passwords are on the class page.

Calendar and Weather

• Go over the calendar and weather. There is a calendar page added to the Documents section on the class page, or you might have a calendar at home to use. What day of the week is it? What day of the week does this month end on? What month comes after this one?
• Check the weblink for the weather. Compare the temperatures for the next 7 days. What is the high? What is the low? How many days of sun will there be? How many days of snow? Which is more? How much more?

ASD-N – Math Board

• New today is a Math Board created by our ASD-N Leads.
• There might be an activity on here you would like to try.

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.
• Codes are on the front cover of your agendas if you have them home. If not, I e-mailed them to you. Let me know if there is any trouble accessing them.

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/Physical Activity

• I think it might be a little too cold to get outside.
• If it’s too cold, check Mrs. Dickson’s page for some fun Phys. Ed activities.

STEAM Time

• Check the STEAM Choice Board under the Documents Tab. If you have not had a chance to do 1 activity this week, maybe you have some extra time today. Try one of the art activities.

ASD-N Cross-Curricular BINGO Card

• There is a BINGO Card with lots of different activities to try from our ASD-N Leads.
• You might find an activity here that you would like to try out.

Photos

• Send along pictures of any of the activities you do. I would love to see them and will add them to our class page to share with the rest of the class.

Pick Up – Home Learning Packs – Week 3

• Parents/Guardians will be able to pick up Home Learning Packs for Week 3 today Friday January 21^st from 12:30 – 3:30PM. If this time does not work for you, please let me know and we can arrange another time.
