May 23, 2011

Hi all,

Thanks for sending in your child's pizza money!


Please notice the ABC Countdown under the second grade tab on the blog.
There are a couple of changes: 
R day will be "Ready to be part of the audience for a respect assembly" and the variety show will be for our class only, not the big show as in the past. More information will come home shortly.

 Last week we:

 - began social studies Unit 9 How Do Communities Change? - read a story called Ruth Law Thrills a Nation. We also made paper airplanes with our reading buddies.
 - continued Topic 11: Multiplication and Division Concepts. 
 - practiced being social detectives.
 - did more work with Superflex (super hero who represents flexible thinking) and  Rock Brain.
 - observed our caterpillars as they began hatching into adults.
 - honored Mrs. Brady for being an awesome room parent.
 - wrote thank you letters to Mr. Wilson
 - made posters for our reading buddies to encourage them as they took the MSP.
This week we'll:
 - read and take an assessment over a story called Cool Ali
 - continue to be social detectives
 - learn more about Superflex and the Team of Unthinkables
 - continue  social studies Unit 9 How Do Communities Change?
 - practice subtraction math facts with a music cd.
 - continue math Topic 11: Multiplication and Division Concepts.
 - observe our butterflies

 - make butterfly hats and kindness bags
 - interview each other
 - share our favorite books with our reading buddies (Please remind your student to bring books to share.)

 

Enjoy your week!
