Wow! What a week!! It was full of fun activities and finishing up work before the holidays!!
I wish all of my students and their families a wonderful and safe holiday! I will see you all in 2019!!!
Over the holidays please continue to read, work on your literacy at home duotang, and practice addition and subtraction! We will be wrapping up subtraction the first week back in January and moving on to geometry. Continue to do adventures over the break (don't just play video games and sit on the couch! Get out and enjoy time with family and friends!!! ;) )

Social Studies: Students are working on completing their units. Grade 2s are comparing 2 celebrations of their choice. Grade 3s are comparing 2 aspects of life as a pioneer versus today. We will complete these projects the first week back in January.
Grade 3 students went to MacSkimming Pioneer Village. Please see photo section for photos. Unfortunately, my class was split up, therefore, I am missing photos of some students in our class.
