News from Second Grade
Nuevas Fronteras Spanish Immersion 2nd grade with Sra. O-R
Learning plans for the week of March 23, 2015
Dearest families,
Reading:
This next week, the kids will read La Vida Secreta del los Árboles by Chiara Chevalier. This is an informational text all about trees.
Math:
We are continuing 2-digit subtraction this next week.
Writing:
We have started work on persuasive letters. Most of them are about sports and other things that the kids are passionate about. :)
Culture:
The kids will have a chance to visit another country on Tuesday when we have a cultural day at school! I'm excited to see what different things they'll learn. The kids will be in mixed age groups on Tuesday from 10am-3:20pm learning about another Spanish speaking country!
Flat Stanley!
We're starting a really fun project that will involve hearing from all over the world!
Please continue to send Stanley around the world, and remind him to send us a photo or a postcard!

Pennies for Patients
We're currently in the middle of the pack in our school-- neither winners nor stragglers. Please continue to send pennies if you can! It's a great cause and the kids are SO MOTIVATED by this fun project. :)
Please send clothes for playing outside
I promise to get us out as much as is appropriate (and as much as I'm allowed). Please send clothing appropriate for going outside (even though the kids will complain when I remind them that they need to wear it!).
