This Week in 2B
Biography Research, Place Value, Compound Words, and Sounds
Our Learning Journey....
With our biography project being a major focus this week, students will complete their note taking using their book, websites and encyclopedias. Students are learning to extrapolate the important information from these sources while thinking about how each piece will fit into their essay. In grammar we will be exploring compound words with some fun art activities. During mathematics lessons we will be working with area and place value up to the ten-thousands. Remember that asking your student to make change while out running errands will be a great way to reinforce last week's lessons. In science we will begin to talk about sound in a very basic way. Look for notes to come home on Friday so your student can begin their presentation boards.
