The Grade 2 class had a great Literacy Week which finished off with a dress up celebration of colourful characters from books and pop culture. We’ve also taken our Energy Unit deeper with what started off as a simple conversation about energy for the body from sugar sources, which led to an inquiry about how much sugar is in our food and drinks. This week the kids began exploring how to estimate weight in grams with sand, and how to use a digital scale. Next, they start to measure sugar and get a sense of what this may look like in our daily food and drink choices.
