Christmas Problem Solving

Greetings,

I have found this great problem solving site for any students and parents who are interested in a challenge. Your goal is to try and light up all the lights on the Christmas tree. It has left me frustrated. Good luck.

Hat Day

Greetings,

As can be seen in the picture above, there was quite the assortment of hats in 2F last Friday as students participated in the "Hat Day" put on by our Student Parliament.

The GNPS can drive is off to a great start as well. If students reach the goal of collecting 1,600 cans, Mr. Edmondson & Mrs. Major have agreed to allow themselves to be taped to the gym wall. When I left the school today we were already at 1,538 cans, so needless to say I think our administration can expect to be taped up.

Thanks again for your support.

Rainbow Fireworks

Greetings,

We have been having great fun conducting science experiments during our "Solids & Liquids" unit. This is our first attempt at video taping so some of the voices are not clear. This experiment is called Rainbow Fireworks and it is one of our favourites so far.

Enjoy!

Raz Kids at School

Greetings,

2F students were able to use "Raz Kids" at school with the laptops. Everyone was excited to share their "Raz Rocket Room" purchases with each other. Students that have not accessed the program at home as of yet were able to check it out at school and those familiar with the program were very helpful assistants.

Thanks for your continued support.

Curious George Visits 2F

Greetings,

2F students were surprised to open the door and find Curioug George standing with Mrs. Woodruff. Curious George was visiting the students attending the GNPS Scholastic Book Fair and stopped by our classroom to say hello.

Thanks so much for your support of the Book Fair . Our school library will be able to purchase over $2000 in new books. 2F students are excited to see what Mrs. Woodruff purchases for our library.
