Happy Flag Day!  We had a very nice assembly today and our class was well behaved.  I know its been hard for all the kids at school this month with all of the activities that are going on; I know how hard it can be for grade 2 with so many irregularities in their schedule; I've been very proud at the effort our class is putting in every day!   In our book today the kids made it off the island and back home before their parents found out!  We had Fast ForWord, recess, and assembly.  After assembly we did some math (using snap cube units), and finished up the day with music.  I wont be at school tomorrow, Mr. Somers will be in class in my place.  Best Behavior everyone!  Don't forget, our class is nominated for 2 CUTE awards!  Best website, and our song "Feet on the Floor".   On top of that our own Zach R is nominated for a Junior Reporter Award!  Everyone is welcome to attend on Wednesday night!   See who else at Ian Baillie has been nominated at the following link:http://www.district16.nbed.nb.ca/news/district-16-cute-awards-finalists-...

 A very good day today!  We started out the day with a little laugh, the morning announcements were very good today!  Then we immediately voted for our own class to win a cute award!   We recorded the morning message, and read another chapter in our book.  Luckily Claire and Yum Yum have come to island and found the boys, we hope they get out and back home before their mom knows their missing!   In math we did some more estimating and measuring using different units.   After recess we went to an assembly for "IBP So You Think You Can Dance".  I hope we find out the winner(s) tomorrow.  We finished up with some fast forward.  Tomorrow is a very busy day.  We will have a normal opening morning (including spelling test), and start our valentines celebration at 9:40.  The choir people will leave for the Mount right after recess, and our assembly will start right after lunch.  Both grade 2's will miss Fast ForWord tomorrow.  We will finish up the day with our Math draw and a math game!  Remember dress warm and dress in blue!Our class list (which is missing Liam MacKinnon) is posted on this site at:http://ianbaillie.nbed.nb.ca/,sites/ianbaillied7.nbed.nb.ca/files/feeds/...

  Today blew by!  We started the day with Fast Forward, had an early snack so that when the recess bell rang we were on the bus and ready to go skating!  We got back from skating and went straight outside.  We had hot lunch and did our afternoon letter.  We took some time and learned how to VOTE for our class for a cute award, and Mr. Lange came in to talk about our coming flag day in YYW.  We finished up with some Math around the world, and touched on how to choose what units to use when measuring.  We talked about why we might use snap cube units to measure floor tiles BUT NOT floor tiles units to measure snap cubes.  Its a bit confusing so we will talk about again tomorrow.  We should have some fun watching the "Ian Baillie So You Think You Can Dance" finals tomorrow too!  Remember VOTE VOTE VOTE!
