Second Grade Update
August 31st - September 4th
Weekly Happenings
We had a great second week of school! In our daily morning meetings, we greeted each other in different, fun ways (ask your child about these new greetings!), shared things about ourselves, and learned about self-control. In math, we started discussing place value and different ways to show a number. In science, we designed an experiment to determine plants' needs, and then we planted our own plants. We will be helping them grow and measuring their growth. In language arts, we discussed inside(physical) and outside(personality) character traits. We practiced capitalization and punctuation in our writing.
Reading!
This week we "shopped" for books in our classroom library and were able to enjoy some time reading independently.
Excitement!
We are so excited for our new outdoor learning center. Here we are watching the groundbreaking ceremony! Stay tuned for updates.
Teamwork!
We practiced using teamwork to conquer the cups challenge.
Reminders
Don't forget that Monday is a holiday! We will meet again on Tuesday. Enjoy your break!
