Here's what is happening in second grade next week.
Writing:
Arrrrgh matey! Shiver Me Timbers, it's Talk Like A Pirate Day! Our writing is pirate themed this week as we focus on complete sentences, correct punctuation, and capital letters. We will also use our imagination to write a story about what might happen if we were a pirate.
Reading:
This week we are digging into Kevin Henkes' books. We will be reading Sheila Rae The Brave and Chester's Way as well as a non-fiction passage on Kevin Henkes. We will be comparing stories and checking for comprehension.
Math:
We are working on comparing and ordering numbers. We will learn how to notate numbers as greater than, less than, or equal to. We will also review skip counting patterns and practice putting numbers in order in different ways.
Science:
Matter matters this week! We will be learning about the different types of matter and focusing on how matter can change forms. We will perform a few experiments to watch how one material can take different forms of matter.
Question of the week: What are hieroglyphs?
Reminders:
Early Release Day: September 28th
Today we built numbers using cheez-its, pretzel sticks, and m&ms. It was very fun and a great review of everything we've been working on. Thank you to everyone who sent in supplies. Here are a few pictures!
