Another year of March Madness: Book Edition. Gr. 2/3 engaged in deep discussions, made tough decisions, became book critics, & even gave persuasive arguments when wiring a paragraph about why they agree or disagree with the results. @GrapeviewSchool @ForestofReading @peggysbooks

Amazing afternoon at our Terry Fox walk! We crushed our goal and enjoyed seeing students and families walking together. Thanks Miss Doucette and Mr. Armstrong for their hard work, and community for their contributions. #GryphonProud @TerryFoxCanada

✨Grade 2 has spoken!✨ These all were such fun books to read & sparked so many great discussions. Amazing job done by all authors and illustrators! That's a wrap on March Madness Book Edition! @dsbn @ForestofReading

@peggysbooks @ForestofReading @dsbn We loved Harley the Hero and it has moved on to the next bracket!! Such a great read and sparked a lot of discussions. 😊

First day of March means first day of March Madness...book edition that is! All Blue Spruce nominees from various @ForestofReading years. Can't wait to see which book comes out on top? Make a prediction! 📖 @dsbn #remotelearning #MarchMadness

Gr. 2 made🎈🌎 in social studies to learn about global communities. We love singing our 7 continent song together as a class! There's Internet lag & echos but there are smiles & laughs all round! Trying to bring hands-on activities to remote learning. @dsbn

Virtual Valentine's this year. Grade 2 loved handing out Valentines to their friends. Reading their kind messages is heartwarming! I am one lucky and proud teacher! 🥰 @dsbn #remotelearning

January 18 - Schools are closed again today. Sidewalks and roads are still being cleared due to yesterday’s very heavy snowfall - we did not feel it was safe to open schools at this time.Keep warm and stay safe!

Well friends, it’s a SNOW DAY! Schools are closed. This includes remote learning.   2022 is off to a strange start. We know lots of you were ready to go to school today, but it’s officially a long weekend, so we really hope you enjoy it!

A 'toast' to the new year and our Grade 2 class! Looking forward to a great 2022! 🎉 @dsbn #remotelearning

Grade 2 enjoyed making themselves into snow people today. Students even added extra accessories and turned it into a game profile! So creative and tech savvy! Happy Winter Break! ❄️⛄ @dsbn #remotelearning

Sharing what we think we know and what we wonder about animals in Gr 2 science today. Always shocked with how many fun facts students know about animals! @dsbn

Happy World Ocean Day! 🌊🐠 Students took a virtual field trip to Monterey Bay Aquarium put together by the amazing primary team at @SchoolPlymouth. We designed posters to bring awareness to the oceans. Then, we watched the sharks being fed LIVE at @RipleysAquaCA @dsbn 🐋

Grade 2/3 had lots of fun playing Among Us - math style today in our meeting. Great communication during the discussions, excellent sleuthing and got to practise some math problems. It was a hit! @SchoolPlymouth @dsbn

We had some special guests learning with us for Bring Your Pet to School Day. Dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, Minecraft animals, snakes, hedgehogs, unicorns - you name the pet, our class had it! Thank you Grade 2/3 for sharing your furry and not so furry friends! @SchoolPlymouth @dsbn

❗️ The @ONgov has officially confirmed #DSBN students WILL RETURN to in-person learning this Monday, on February 8. We're looking forward to welcoming you back! 📨 Secondary: schools will contact families directly 📨 Elementary: information posted here 🔗dsbn.org/covid-19-infor…

Today, every view of this video helps create positive change. All you need to do is watch it and Bell will donate 5¢ more to Canadian mental health initiatives. Retweet to help spread the word! #BellLetsTalk

In Gr. 2/3, we are exploring questioning. We came up with questions we had BEFORE reading and we did it through our first collaborative Jamboard! We love subitizing as a fun activity during math! Love hearing students' creative and ingenious math thinking 💡 @SchoolPlymouth

Thankful to be taking P/J Mathematics Part 1 with @QueensCTE @QueensEduc. Looking at the diversity of a math classroom was a task that I found very valuable & informative. This by no means is a complete list but some research I've found. Always looking for input to add & improve!

What an unbelievably creative way to turn plastic dividers into something fun and engaging. A fun activity to get to know your students could be to have students design their own bumper stickers 🐴⚽🎨🛹 trib.al/UjsFKK0
