January 12

What a great day.  Looks like the snow is beginning to melt.  Yay!

Today during writer's workshop, we made a list of non-fiction topics that we can write about.  We are still working on writing a fact followed by a detail.  

The word families we worked on today included an, ain an acing.  We talked about c sometimes saying sssss.

Today we started talking about magnets.  We learned the words attack, repel and polar.  We worked on a page in our visual journals which represented things that are or are not magnetic.  We also watched a Bill Nye the Science Guy on Magnetism.

After lunch the grade twos worked on a difficult math word problem.  It was awesome!  After some struggles we finally came to terms with the fact that sometimes things are hard and this is good because it means we are stretching our thinking capacity.

At the end of the day, we worked on our Past Inquiry projects...... If I lived in the past!

Have a wonderful evening.

Just a reminder book orders are due on Friday.
