Home Learning - November 8th

Posted: November 8, 2021

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope that you had a fun weekend and got out to enjoy the beautiful weather!

Here are some activities you can work on today, to go with your Home Learning Kit.

Word Work - Sight Words - I hope you are moving along with the lists. Practice the list you are working on. Remember you should be able to read each word on the list right away. Spelling - Practice the word list you are doing on the page in your blue book. Only move on to the next list when you can spell all words on the list. Try the word work page in your book - Sight Words - List B - Word Scramble. You have to unscramble all 10 sight words and spell them correctly. If you get stuck, look back at the word list on the purple sheet.

Reading - Pick one of your levelled books to read. Remember you have some in the kit, and also the ones in your homework reading bag. Choose a story book to share with someone. One from the kit, one from home or you can check out the Tumble Books site, the link is on the class page. Use your strategies to help with reading and make sure you record the books you read on the log sheet.

Writing - Journal - My Weekend - Write 4 good sentences about your weekend. Talk about it first with someone at home, so you can recall details. Remember that every sentence tells a whole idea and needs to begin with a capital and end with (., !, or ?). Add a picture to go with your writing. Use the word sheets in your kit to help.

Squiggle Park - If you have access to a device, go on and play for 15 minutes. Your code and password are on the front cover of your agenda.

Math - Warm Up - Jack Hartman Video - Move/exercise and count. Try counting forwards and backwards by 10. If you can't get the videos, you can move and count on your own. In your blue book, try the Numbers and Operations page Even and Odd Numbers. You have to colour the pictures with an even number orange and the pictures with an odd number yellow. If you don't have crayons, put an x on the even numbers and circle the odd numbers. Play one of the math games from the choice board in the purple folder. The materials you need are included.

Dream Box - If you have access to a device, go on and play for 15 minutes. Remember to do the activities with the blue star first. Your code and password are on the front cover of your agenda.

STEAM Time - Check out the Choice Board in the Documents section. Pick one activity to do for the week. It will be posted below as well.

Outside Time - We have really lucked out with the weatehr over the past week. Today looks like another nice one! Dress warm and head outside to explore, run and have fun. Can you see any animals getting ready for winter? What do the trees look like now?

Veterans Week/Remembrance Day - This week is Veterans Week. A very important week to honour the service, courage and sacrifice of our Canadian Veterans, Soldiers and Forces. Please take time during the week to remember and say thank you. There are some activities and a website added below. I would ask that you do an activity during the week. Today November 8th, is Indigenous Veterans Day. Please take 2 minutes of silence during the day to remember and say thank you.

Have a great day Grade 2! I really hope to see all of you soon.

If you need help with anything or you have questions about the activities, please send me an e-mail. Thank you for all of your support at home.
