Welcome parents, guardians and students. It's hard to believe November is almost over. This is an exciting week in grade two as we have a visitor from District Office. Mrs. Sylvia McConkey, our K-2 math mentor has been working with us. The boys and girls have been working with tangrams and learning some very interesting things about these ancient Chinese puzzles. Be sure to ask them about this.
Homework is due Friday as usual. Our math homework focuses on place value this week. Also, please get an early start on your space stories, I'm anxious to read them. Spelling is a bit trickier this week with five silent "w" words, but I know you can do it!
Chloe Best has headed off to Newfoundland. We are certainly going to miss her and her many insect friends. We wish her all good things in her new school. I'm sure she will have lots of adventures to share with us via e-mail. We'll be waiting Chloe! We miss you.
My homeroom class is doing well. You can't imagine how much the kindergarteners have learned already! Some are even starting to write sentences. I am also positive that our class sings O'Canada with the most gusto. Keep up the great work boys and girls! All for now,
M. Cronk
