Good Morning Everyone!
I hope you had a good day yesterday and got outside to enjoy the beautiful day!
Here is an outline to follow for today.
Word Work - Sight Words - If you know all of the list A1 & A2 words and can read them without hesitation work on list B1 & B2 today. If you still need work on spelling them, keep practicing on the page in your book. If you have them all start working on spelling the B1 & B2 list in the book. Don't move on to the next list until you can do them all. Try the Sight Word - List A - Word Scramble in your book. This is like the guess my word we do around the classroom. The words are mixed up, you have to figure it out and spell it right. If you get stuck, check your word list.
Reading - Pick one of your levelled books to read. Choose a storybook to read to someone. Make sure you record them on the log sheet that was in the pack.
Writing - Today try the Sight Words - List A - Sentences page in your book. The 10 words from List A are in the boxes. Pick 5 and write one sentence using each word. Make sure your sentence tells a whole idea and begins and ends properly. For an extra challenge see if you can use more than one of the words in the sentence.
Squiggle Park - If you have access to a device go on and play for 15 minutes. Remember your code is on the inside cover of the agendas.
Math - Play a Jack Hartman video for warm up. You can count and exercise and move. Try doing one counting by 2s and a counting backwards one from 30. If you can't get the video, just count and move on your own. Try the second math page in your book. Numbers and Operations - Place Value. We have worked on this in class. Use the ten frames, rods and units, and written words to tell what the number is, or make the number. Play 1 or 2 games from the math board. Maybe try the odd and even card game. These are in the purple folders in your packs and all the materials you will need to play are there too.

Dream Box Math - If you have access to a device, go on and play for 15 minutes. Remember to do the activities with the star first. Your password is on the inside cover of the agenda.
Outside Time - Take lots of time to get outside, run, play and explore. You might get an idea of something to write about for another day too. Have fun!
Please reach out to me if there is anything I can help out with or you have questions about the material.
Thank you for your support at home!
Have a good day!

Here is an outline of activities you can work on today.
Word Work - Start With List A1 & A2 - Make sure you can read each word without hesitation. See if you can spell them on the spelling page in your book. Try the Word Search for the List A words.
Reading - Pick one of your levelled books and read it. Pick a storybook to share with someone. Don't forget to put it down on the log sheet.
Writing - Journal - There is a notebook in the Home Learning Kit to use for a journal. It's Monday and we usually share and write about our weekend. Talk about it first and retell 3 things you did. If you celebrated Halloween, that would be good to write about too. Write 4 good sentences and remember to make sure they begin with a capital and end with (., ! or ?). Add a picture to go with your writing.
Squiggle Park - If you have a device and can go on, play for 15 minutes. The class code and password are taped on the front cover of the agendas. A memo was sent home about this earlier.
Math - Play a Jack Hartman Video - There is a link on our page below. Count by 10s and 1s while you exercise. Do the first page in your book. Counting in different ways (1s to 20; 2s to 20; Backwards by 1s from 20; 10s to 100). Play 1 or 2 games from the math board. These are in your purple folders in the kits. All the materails you will need for the games are in the ziplock bag.
Dream Box Math - If you have access to a device go on and play for 15 minutes. Remember to do the ones with the blue star first. The class code and password are taped to the inside of the agendas. A memo went home earlier about this.
Make sure you take time to get outside and play, run and have fun. A lot of learning can be done outside too!
Please e-mail me if you have any questions, or if I can help in any way.
Have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone!
I hope you had a good weekend and a fun Halloween!
Today we begin learning at home and using our Home Learning Kits and other resources. There is a memo about the kits in the pack, but I have uploaded on the teacher page as well. Please check in on our class page each day for activities to be working on. We are only doing a few activities each day and not using everything at once.
Below you will also find an outline for a virtual classroom that would be helpful to use throughout the day.
I will be available throughout the day to help out if you have any questions. Please e-mail me

The students did an amazing job working together to come up with our entry for the shool pumpkin contest. They decided to make a witch and everyone helped to make the finished piece of art! "Witch Nelson" is awesome Grade 2!
