Merry Christmas and Enjoy your winter break =;)

Good afternoon Room 19 students and families,

THANK YOU SOOO VERY MUCH for all the wonderful and thoughtful gifts!  You truly made my day and I appreciate ALL of you!  I am very PROUD of the effort you are putting in and you deserve the break over the next couple of weeks.  Please take some time to enjoy your family and friends but also remember to keep up with your RAZKIDS (reading) and MATHLETICS (math).

We will see you on Tuesday, January 4, 2022 when school begins again (regular uniform on this day).


Below are some fun pictures from our Grade 2 CAROLING:





Thank you for being such an AMAZING group of young students!  You make me PROUD each day, thank you =;)

Your teacher,

Mr. Engel

Week of Dec. 6 - 10, 2021

Good morning everyone,

Thank you for working so well on your SCIENCE MAGNET GAME/ACTIVITY!  You did a fantastic job and I appreciate your hard work on your TWO write-up pages on how you created your project and then your reflection piece (how it could have worked better).  Remember, in Science we make predictions and sometimes they are correct and sometimes we have to fix them - this is why we do the experiments to test what we think and then correct them in the end (THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD).  Below are some of the projects we began using and playing with on Friday - we will continue our exploring on Monday:





















Please remember that next week is our last week before the winter break and each day has a special clothing to wear to celebrate Christmas/Winter.  Please see our Monthly Agenda for these specific clothes/hats to wear!  Enjoy and stay safe =;)

Good afternoon Grade 2 Students and Families,

Thank you to ALL the very GENEROUS families who are helping our school support the FOOD DRIVE!  If you are able to, please bring in some non-perishable food items to help others here in Calgary - it is much appreciated!  Also, please take note of the next couple weeks of school as there are some fun days scheduled especially with what we are going to wear in order to show our Winter/Christmas spirit.  Have fun with these and we look forward to your festive attire =;)
