Primary Blogging Community and All the Jazz

Today our class began our involvement in the Primary Blogging Community.  This is a place where elementary students from around Canada and the US can use their blogs to communicate with each other.  This morning we got to read all about Mrs. Mastin's Grade 2 class in Michigan.  We are so excited to be a part of this awesome group!  Yee Haw! Here is what they wrote to us:

We talked about what makes a good blog comment and came up with lots of great ideas such as asking a question and introducing yourself.  Here is what we wrote back to them:

Through Twitter, we sent a picture of our class.  We hope to do lots of connecting this week and will begin to use our own blogs next week.  Can't wait to read the comments from everyone!

Group 1 and Group 5 finished their Good Friends trailer today (indoor recess!!!).  Take a look!



We have been talking a lot about Growth Mindset these past few weeks.  We came up with a chart to help us change our negative thoughts into positive ones:)

In Math, we consolidated the leaves inquiry from last week.  Students came up to show how they solved the problem.  Is there another way to solve the problem?




Do you have another way to solve this problem?
We continue to work on the Reading Strategy of Making Connections.  At the end of the day, we read the story 'Spaghetti in a Hot Dog Bun'.  We only had a few minutes to make connections and we posted them on a Padlet wall.
