Microbits: Our Special Coding Course Today!!!

Dear Grade 2s,

Today we were so lucky to be the youngest class to get a course on how to do "coding" using Microbits. Christine did a great job explaining how to use the the microbits ane the software. While the new Microbits themselves are kept in our classroom, you can still practise coding on the program at home on a laptop or desktop computer. You can then bring your ideas to school to try with the Microbits. Christine was very impressed with how well you did with the program, and I know "Making Dice" was a real hit with all of you. I hope you enjoyed this new type of learning! Here is the link for the coding program.

Have you got the "Time?"

Hello Grade 2s, 

As you know we have been studying time to the quarter hour on analog and digital clocks. As promised here is an interactive clock which is a great way to locate the different times, as well as to see how the hour and minute hand work together.
