Today we had a rather busy day in grade 2. We began our morning by reading from our class novel: "Cabin Creek Mysteries: The Clue at The Bottom of The Lake". After that, we worked on our Monitor and Fix skills for literacy. The students wrote an independant piece about their weekend and afterwards, they shared their work with the class.

After Language Arts, we had math. We began our class with a listening quiz and then we worked on representing numbers using coins. We practiced coutning coins and did Buddy Math where one student drew a number card from a stack and another student represented that number with coins.

During the afternoon, we had PE. Students went down to the gym and played a variety of games, one in particular was Hop Scotch. After gym, we had art class. For art, we finished our paper maché masks. This was messy but the kids had a blast. They worked well together. It was a great day!
