We had a great math class today! The class practiced skip counting using popsicle sticks. This is a great activity for students to practice counting by 1's and 10's from any number.

     We had a soggy ECO day on Tuesday but these amazing second graders had a positive attitude the whole time! Their challenge was to find 20 items from nature and then find a way to prove that they had all 20 items. We finished up our time outside by playing a game called Camouflage.

3 digit war

     Ask your child to share with you the new math game we played today. To play, all you need is a deck of cards with the K's, Q's, J's and 10's removed. Each player flips over three cards and creates the largest number they can with the digits on their cards. The player with the largest number wins all the cards. The game ends when one player has all the cards in the deck.
     You can also play by creating the smallest number with your cards. This is a great way to practice place value and comparing numbers.

Today we discussed this quote by Jane Yolen: 
     "Exercise the writing muscle every day, even if it is only a letter, notes, a title list, a character sketch, a journal entry. Writers are like dancers, like athletes. Without that exercise, the muscles seize up."
Ask your child what this quote means to him/her?
We also talked about how writers work hard to get better and set goals for their writing. What is your child's writing goal?
