Literacy
This week in Literacy we've continued to work on our stories. Student's have been peer editing their work, as well as conferencing with myself to edit work.
Many of us have completed word processing and we'll begin to move onto illustration and binding our books next week.
Math
This week in Math we've begun to explore subtraction.
Grade 1's have been looking at simple subtraction with numbers of 12 or less.
Grade 2's have been looking at column subtraction, without regrouping. Some student's who have secured their knowledge in subtraction are working on subtraction with regrouping (borrowing).
Science
This week in Science we've been exploring mixing liquids with other liquids (oil, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide and corn syrup) to see how they behave when left, and when stirred.
We've also looked at what happens to solids (flour, cornstarch, coffee, sugar and epsom salts). Student's learned about solids dissolving in liquids.

Social Studies
This week in Social Studies we've moved onto looking at Saskatoon, where it is and what we might see if we went to Saskatoon.
