Dear Families,
I want to express my deepest gratitude for your love and support this year. You have all been my teachers and taught me what resilience, courage, and passion looks like in times of change. It has been an absolute joy to share time and your Grade 2 journey with you this year. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Love, Ms. Park

Sharing The PlanetThis week we returned to school and it was wonderful to learn together. We explored the central idea "small creatures play an important role in our environment." We used our observation and field research skills to gather information about small creatures around ISS. We learned that entomology is the study of insects, and we wondered what it may be like to be a scientist who study the smallest of creatures that make up the largest group in the animal kingdom. Fraction GamesThis week we created our own maths tool and learned all about Fractions as part of a whole. We played many fun games together and learned that equal parts of a whole can create various fraction values. Last Day Of Grade 2We made it! To celebrate the end of Grade 2, we decided to spend time together doing some of our favorite activities. We built forts, made slime, and shared our passions. It was the best year and we can't wait to see what Grade 3 has in store for us. Thank you for supporting and encouraging us through it all. Fact and OpinionThis week we focused on reading critically and thinking about fact and opinion. While reading Animals Nobody Loves by Seymour Simon, an interesting book all about animals that may seem scary or harmful, we looked for facts and opinions presented by the author. Then, we formed our own opinions and presented reasons supporting our thoughts. It was interesting to learn that, often times, animals that may look scary are actually very beneficial to humans. Marble Jar Celebration!This week we filled the marble jar. We chose to celebrate together by turning our classroom into a movie theater. We invited our K1/K2 reading buddies to watch a fun movie while enjoying fresh made popcorn. We can't wait to fill the jar once more! Unit of Inquiry |
