April 16-20


Hello again to all 2nd grade blog followers.  Another week of learning and exploring passed by so quickly.  I'm always surprised to see how fast the students are learning and growing. 

You may have noticed the children measuring things in the house as part of our Math chapter on measurement.  Next week we will continue to focus on measurement and will also start a new chapter that focuses on weight, capacity and temperature.  In Reading class we read two stories ("Jalapeno Bagels" and "The Carousel") and next week we will begin the story called "Thunder Cake". 

In English we have started and will continue to write a descriptive story.  In Science we have started and will continue to learn about comparing matter.  We also completed research for the Science projects and next week we will put that information on posters and practice presenting them for the Science Fair which is on April 25th. 

Congratulations to Yvette Coort for being this weeks student of the week. She has been speaking and participating very well in class. Keep it up!

Dates to remember April 16-20
Monday - spelling quiz (current, danger, carpet, plastic, bottom, hollow, organ, compose, seldom, challenge)

* Parent/teacher meetings will be next week.  Please keep in mind that each meeting is about 15 minutes.  If the 15 minutes is too short to cover all issues you'd like to discuss, we can arrange another time to meet.  I look forward to seeing you!
