I hope you had a great week! Our class has been busy learning new concepts daily! This week we really focused on three digit subtraction with regrouping. This is a hard concept for second graders BUT you can help at home! Give your child a few subtraction problems, such as 345-187, or 523-356. Have them practice solving using the algorithm or base 10 blocks.
Reading Workshop- We will continue our unit on fairy tales. We will focus on legends and myths.
Writing Workshop- We will work on writing personal narratives. We will really focus on conventions and spelling as we try to transition to "third grade" writers.
Math- We will continue our three digit subtraction with regrouping.
Science- We will begin our unit on plants. This ties in perfectly with our unit on insects. Today we did a science experiment about pollination. Ask your child what happened when their "butterfly" stopped to drink nectar!
Class Brighteners-Congratulations to Christian! He is our Star of the Week! Happy Birthday to Christopher. We hope your day is special! Congratulations to Tyler B. He lost a tooth today!
*** One of our butterflies emerged from its chrysalis today***Ask your child about it!
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. King
