We've started our next MSIC unit on Stewardship. We are using the text, Mama Miti. It's about a woman named Wangari Maathai in Kenya, Africa who was known as the mother of trees because she created a green belt of peace with the belief that everyone can help the village, community and Earth. We're also learning how to infer the author's message by using our schema (or background knowledge) and clues from the text.
In math, we are finishing up with 2- and 3-digit addition and subtraction. Starting next week, we'll be working on multiplication and division. Here are some practice questions.
Grade 2
Subtracting 2 -digit numbers with regrouping
Subtraction Word Problems

This week, we went to the Royal Thompson Hall to watch the Toronto Symphony Orchestra play beautiful music using a variety of instruments. It was an amazing experience. Please ask your children about their experience.
We've ran out of tissue boxes and I was wondering if a few parents could send a box with their child. The weather is changing and we have lots of runny noses. I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for all your help and support!
