Today we did some journal writing about our field trip to the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary. I am very impressed with how many students are putting more and more into their work. Their sentences are well thought out, neat and organized, they are beginning to self check for capitalization and punctuation and their drawings are becoming more detailed. I am seeing some great Grade 2 quality work!
I encourage all the students to continue to work on printing neatly with attention to upper and lower case letters. We have talked about when to use upper case letters, such as at the beginning of a sentence, in names, places, days and months.
Home Challenge: Practice printing your first and last name with the first letter uppercase and the rest lower case. If you are already good at your first and last name, try your middle name too!
Important Dates to keep in mind:
May 31st - Playground Grand Opening 11:00 am - 2:00 pm - all students will receive a free pizza lunch on this day.
June 9th - Volunteer Tea - Notice coming home tomorrow
June 16th - Fun Lunch
