Hello Families,
We have a great week ahead! Tomorrow we will have our Family Tree presentations! Please come in and check out the displays!
We will be reading "Anthony Reynose - Born to Rope". We will be studying the digraphs "ph and gh" sounding like /f/. The focus strategy will be using summary and retelling for comprehension. The students will be writing a personal story AND illustrating it! We will turn it into a book! We will also look at using the verb form of "be" correctly. "am, are,is, was, were" Tests will be on Friday.
We are continuing our study of money in Math. The focus is on exchanging sums of money (understanding equivalent amounts). We are also looking at computing amounts on the calculator. We will be using estimation when calculating as well. Please continue to practice the facts! The addition and subtraction facts from 19 are a secure skill for 2nd grade.
This week we will begin our unit on Weather in Science. We will be tracking the weather for the next week. I am personally hoping for SUN and a little rain for my new grass! We can always hope :]!
Earth Day is Wednesday! Our class and Elmer School are decorating grocery bags for reuse at the Elmer Supervalue IGA. The bags are on display for the next week and then on to the store for distribution!
F.A.S.T. Clubs start this week! Everyone is so excited! Fun times at Elmer School!
Have a great week!
Mrs. Scull
