January Posting: Welcome 2010!

Happy New Year and welcome 2010. In the past two weeks, the grade two's in Miss. Mishos' class have been as busy as ever! In Math, they have begun a new unit studying Time through Measurement. They are focusing on the quarter past hour and quarter to. In Science, both of the grade two classes are completing their unit on Matter & Materials (Solids & Liquids). In this time, we have looked at which materials float and which materials sink. The students are also in the midst of planning and building a raft as a final in class project. Finally, the boys and girls of Room 112 are actively working on various writing assignments. As part of their Language Arts, they are learning about different fairy tales and folk tales from all over the world.
