We had a great week at school!  We got our math tests back and we all did a fantastic job!  In writing workshop we were writing stories about our Halloween costume or making up a spooky make-believe story about Halloween. This week we have been practicing Read to Someone and checking for understanding. Today we had a visit from Mad Science.  A lady did experiments using dry ice!! This was awesome. She made a volcanoe using dry ice, hot water and  dish soap. She put a banana into a cooler full of dry ice and within 20 minutes it was rock solid. She could bang it with a hammer and it wouldn't break!  There is a notice going home today about MadScience workshops being held after school for students. Please check our this notice. Tomorrow is our Halloween Jamboree. Don't forget to bring your costume to put on for the afternoon. After the Jamboree we will have a small party in our classroom!                                    Written by grade 2 students.
