Last Thursday we met our PBIS Pals for the first time! Our Pals are a group of 7th and 8th graders that we will be meeting with on Early Release Days and hopefully a few other times, as well. The class had so much fun interviewing their Pals and getting to know each other. Ask your child if he/she remembers anything about his/her buddy.

Have dice at home? Help your child practice his/her Make 10 facts by rolling the dice and asking them which number goes with the number rolled to make 10. For example, if you roll a 6, your child should tell you that 4 goes with it to make 10. Have fun!
We had a wonderful time at the Tunbridge Fair on Thursday! Please check out our Second Grade Homepage for some great pictures of our day. Thank you so much to all our terrific chaperones!
Yesterday we started our first science unit about relationships in ecosystems. We started by talking about the difference between living and nonliving things. Second graders created a living and a nonliving thing out of play dough. We then brainstormed a list of characteristics of living things. Ask your child about his/her creations and what the characteristics of living things are.
To start our first ECO adventure everyone completed a scientific drawing and made "I wonder" and "I notice" statements about what they saw. We headed outside for our first Thanksgiving Circle and to play a quick game of tag. At our base camp the second graders were asked to find a nonliving thing they thought was interesting to bring back to camp and share with their class. They then created a picture using their pieces from nature. We will be going outside for ECO based on our science units. I will use our class website and Class Dojo to let you know when we will be going out. You can see your child's beautiful poster tomorrow night at the Open House. I hope to see you all there! Everyone did a wonderful job editing, revising and presenting their opinion letters. Letters were written to parents, friends, teachers and our principals.I'm very proud of their hard work. We had an amazing day working on our WIN projects. Ask your child about his/her project. |
