Here's What's Happening in Second Grade!
This coming week is another short week, but we're going to make the most of our time together. On Tuesday, we will make up our List #13: Short O spelling test from last week. We'll also be taking a quick fractions assessment to check in and see how our learning is progressing. We'll continue with a few more fractions lessons and then it's on to double-digit addition with regrouping. I will be sending some homework pages home so that students can practice this skill at home and demonstrate their learning. Look for those quick homework sheets to start coming home towards the end of this week and next week. We learn best by teaching others!
We're still plugging away on the writing portion of our Box Projects. Students will be editing and publishing the final copy of their how-to manuals this week. We will have our gallery walk on Friday and students will get to tour all of the projects and offer constructive feedback and compliments to their classmates. Box projects will be coming home on Friday, January 19th {half-day}, so please make sure you make arrangements to pick up boxes next Friday. Please let me know if this doesn't work for you and we need to make other arrangements.
