On Monday we had the Christmas tree lighting ceremony and received our beautiful advent calendar from the PTA.
Also on Monday, the students presented their invention timeline slideshows with each other in small groups.
Throughout the week the Grade 2s were hard at work on inventing their own wonderful inventions to help people meet different needs or solve our day to day problems. They demonstrated a lot of creativity and we would like to hold an Invention Convention this coming Wednesday, December 6. Students will have their projects and design plans on display and will be on hand to talk about and explain their inventions. We would like to invite all class parents who can make it to join us from 14:50 until 15:30 to check it out. Here’s a sneak peek at some of the students working on their projects. Those who haven’t finished up have been asked to work on it over the weekend so that they will be ready for the upcoming Invention Convention.
We have been focusing on addition and subtraction skills in class lately, but in preparation for our unit test on 2D and 3D shapes coming up next week we did some revision on geometry with a fun game of Kahoot!
Finally, our biggest event of the past week was our field trip to Kobe Maritime Museum and Kawasaki World on Tuesday. Thank you so much to Ms Huang, Ms Healy and Ms Carter for joining us! It was great having the three of you along! The students also seemed to have a lot of fun with all of the interactive exhibits! I put together the following video to highlight all the things we saw and did there!
