Learning the basic facts to 18 is an important part of the Grade 2 curriculum.  Over the next few months, students will learn many strategies to help up solve addition and subtraction equations.  Then once they have this solid foundation, they will work hard to obtain rote recall (memorization) of these facts.  Today we began our first strategy - adding zero.  All of the strategies are listed on the Basic Fact Strategy page of our website.  

It was our first Music class today!  We had Mrs. Stanski working in our classroom last week and students were excited to see her again today!

In Language Arts, students have been demonstrating their writing skills by journaling daily.  Today they created a short entry about their favourite food.  

In Social Studies, students learned the cardinal directions, North, South, East and West.  We also learned a little poem to help us remember.  Ask your child to share this with you this evening.
