Today we had an author and illustrator visit. Author Jace Jax read his book, "Kidsburgh Chronicles Little Jack Jarmagan: A Halloween Tale! The illustrator, Henry Hama, went over the illustration process with us. It was very interesting!

In Math we have continued to work on finishing up our bead bar graphs.

We looked at writing a conclusion and an introduction during our writer workshop for how to be a leader.

In Social Studies we looked at how to use Photo Booth and iMovie. We will be able to create a movie to show our learning about the historical event we are investigating.

The week is really going by fast. Today we presented our 3 Truth's and 1 Fib. It was a great way for everyone in Room 2 to get to know each other. In Math we continued to work on graphing. We looked at reading a pictograph. We continue to work on our math workshop too. Tomorrow we have library. It will be in the morning. I'm encouraging students to choose a book they are interested in and challenging them to try new authors that they wouldn't usually choose. This Friday is a PD. On September 26th we will have our Terry Fox Run, Open house and BBQ. See you tomorrow!
