Second Graders are learning about compound words. We are all looking forward to COMPOUND WORD DAY on Wednesday, November 13. It is so exciting. I will post pictures next week. They will also learn about adjectives and verbs in their reading and writing. These describing words and interesting verbs will add to embelishing their writing to "hook-in" their audience. Right now their audience is me and their classmates. Soon it will be parents and others beyond the classroom.
In math, we are assessing addition with regrouping and begin subtraction with and without regrouping. The kiddos seem to be doing a pretting good job with the new math language of the
In Focus program. Olease make sure they continue to practice thier easy math facts. It will help with accuracy in the bigger problems.
We will begin Unit 6 in Fundations. Remember to practice all trick words through SPELLCITY and flash cards. Please practice FUNdations words from worksheets and newsletters found EDLINE.
Lastly, in social studies, we are finishing up with communities this week. Kiddos will finalize their media projects and in class they are working on a "helper" craft which are coming out so cute.
Stay warm and enjoy the beautiful fall colors that abound.
