Good Morning,
I realized that I never posted last Friday. Sorry about that. This week the students finished writing a narrative piece about the picture book that their group chose. They will present their stories next week. Yesterday, we continued looking at the Statue of Liberty. This is a continuation of our monument unit. The students have been using a variety of sources to find the information they need to research each monument. The final project will have them using their research/notes to create a presentation about their learning. This week the first graders have been working with non-standard measuring and the concept of telling time to the hour and half hour. We have also looked at the concept of fraction notation (1/2s). The second graders have been working with the concept of patterns within numbers and completed a unit on subtraction with regrouping.
Valentine's Day: The students will be allowed to make Valentines for their classmates. Next Friday (after lunch), we will have a time where the kids can pass out their valentines. Below is a list of the students who would like to participate:
Isaac, Jaedyn, Chip, Parker, Noa, Lydia, Juno, Jack, Riley, Soren, Logan, Lucy, Julia, Matthew, Emma
If students would like to bring in a treat for the afternoon, they are welcome to do so. We will do this from 12:45-1:30. We will not be doing Weekly News next week (to accommodate the time for this).
Notes:
*Your child has their Weekly News in their homework bag.
*There is weekend reading homework.
I hope you all have a great weekend.
Peace,
Tommy
