We had a wonderful week of learning! We are still going full speed ahead as we try to get in as much learning as we can for our last few weeks together. Today your child is bringing home a bird house they made as part of our STEAM project along with a bag of seeds. If you hang it on a branch, please send me pictures so I can share the picture with the the class. We also released our butterflies today so please make sure you log in to SeeSaw to see our video.
Here is our week of learning at a glance:
Reading/ Writing Workshop- We have begin our animal research project. We will use the next few weeks to research our animal and then put together a final project to display all the information we have learned.
Math- This week we will finish our unit on multiplication and begin our unit on division or equal shares. In second grade, we do not memorize multiplication facts. We begin to understand the concept of equal groups, or arrays, and relate these to repeated addition.
Science/ Social Studies- This week we will use our science time to research our animal. I am hoping to have our projects finished by our conferences.
Important News:
We are still in need of toilet paper rolls so please keep sending those in! We also need craft sticks please! I sent our e-mails about conferences so please make sure you sign up! If those dates do not work for you, please let me know and we will work together to find a date!
Just a few dates to remember:
May 18- Field day- It was rescheduled due to the weather.
May 29- Our last day together and our party will begin at 1:00

We want to say Congratulations to Ryan ! He was our Star of the Week last week! This week we are super excited to see Ella's poster since she is our new Star of the Week! The students love the handwriting award and Natalie and Arial were the winners last week! Being able to write with smelly markers is pretty cool!
I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
