In Grade 2 Riseley, we have really enjoyed the last 2 weeks getting to know our new classmates and making new friends. We have been engaging in lots of different writing, spelling, and math activities and we are really excited about all our specialist classes this year. We are currently working on building up our reading skills by taking the time each morning to read independently or with a buddy in the class. We have also begun looking at place value, measurement, and recount writing. We also started our buddy sessions this week and can’t wait to get to know them.

In other news, we have been lucky enough to have been chosen to participate in the School Lunch Project this year. This means that every Monday, we enjoy a hot meal provided by the school. Our first meal was an absolute hit, with some students requesting seconds! We are really looking forward to this year, with a lot of learning and growing to do!
