Ms. Oshokoya's Weekly Agenda: Grade 2 Weekly Update-4/10/2026

🌟 Grade 2 Weekly Classroom Update 🌟

Dear Grade 2 Families,

We had a fantastic week of learning as we reflected on our field trip and explored exciting new concepts—especially in Science! Here’s a look at what we’ve been up to.

📚 Language Arts – POWER Writing: Telus Spark Field Trip

This week in Language Arts, students worked through the full POWER Writing process using their experience from our Telus Spark field trip.

Throughout the week, students:

🧠 Planned and organized their ideas
✏️ Wrote detailed drafts
🔍 Edited and re-read their work
🎤 Shared their writing with their peers in an Author's sharing circle

Students did a wonderful job recalling their experiences and adding details to bring their writing to life!

🔢 Math – Double-Digit Addition

In Math, we continued learning double-digit addition (without regrouping) using a number line.

We also practiced:

🔍 Esti-Mysteries to build mathematical reasoning skills
🧠 Creating and using number lines in our journals

Students are becoming more confident in solving problems and explaining their thinking.

🔬 Science – Exploring Light

Our Science learning focused on light and how it behaves.

Students explored:

Sources of light (natural and artificial)
Bioluminescence
Properties of Light
Absorption (how Opaque, Translucent, and Transparent materials take in light)

Students were engaged in discussions, videos, and journal reflections as they began to think like scientists and observe how light works in the world around them.
