Good
Morning! The warm weather is finally
with us. We are excited to open our
windows and let in all the fresh spring air.
Here is
what weíll be working on in second grade during this first full week of May…
Writing-
The children have been working very hard on their informational
writing. They are doing a wonderful job
using their notes to write detailed paragraphs about their countries. We will begin putting together our country
books soon.
Math- Unit 10
is now complete so the children will complete their unit assessment this
afternoon. Unit 11 will begin with
different types of addition and subtraction word problems. The children will practice 1 and 2 step word
problems.
Social
Studies- We have now completed our 2 weeks in Africa . This week weíll begin learning about our
final continent, Asia .
On Tuesday we will celebrate “Childrenís Day”, which is a holiday
celebrated all over Japan on May
5th. On Tuesday the children will get to
make carp fish wind socks. Carp fish are
symbols of strength and bravery and are said to bring good fortune!
***This
week officially begins our “Pennies for Patients” compassion project. We look forward to seeing how our coin
donations can add up quickly to help kids in need.
