Selfie on a Timer by LillianWe started the day with some spelling and small problems, then we had a joint language arts class until recess (while I went to Newcastle to teach the grade 2 PE).  We had choir practice at recess.  I have a feeling choir may get some new grade 3 boys joining tomorrow, or at least visiting with a letter about why they want to be MC.   After recess we had a joint math class!  We did board work and worked in our teams to estimate some objects.  Did you use a sample as a referent to help you estimate?  I hope so!  Then we went outside for lunch!  It was just before we sat down to eat that I noticed the picture of the day being taken.  We worked It is true that some pictures might look a little crisper and clearer than this one, but I chose it because Lillian chose to play with the settings, use the timer, and pose for a picture herself!  Keep showing each other features of the camera and dont be afraid to take LOTS of pictures!   After lunch we had music class with Mrs. McCarthy and started our concert songs.  A little bit different from yesterday when we went to NBCC for gym!  After rehearsal we had Mr. Murphy!  I know its anti-bully week, do you remember what you talked about?  Then for science we worked with our groups to figure out some word puzzles!  Do you remember any of them?  (Sandbox, I understand, long under wear, man over board?)  We also got a chance to give our partners a grade!  Were you a hard marker?  We finished off the day with our regular closing routine and we also got our REPORT CARDS!  Everyone did very well!  Im very pleased with everyone!  Miss Gallant and I attached the Parent teacher interview times on the front of the envelope.  Dont forget we have skating tomorrow!  You need to bring your helmet, or you wont be allowed on the ice.  Get lots of rest and I will see you in the morning.
