We had a great first full week! The students earned five class points, so they were able to eat lunch in the classroom on Friday. This was a fun special treat they were working for through out the week. Also, on Friday, Mrs. Mortensen checked each class to see who had turned in the letter that she had assigned for homework. Second grade was the only grade will 100% of letters turned in! Mrs. Mortensen was so excited; she took all the second grade classes out for a game of Dodgeball! Great job second graders! I sent home our first homework packet on Friday. This needs to be completed and turned in this Thursday. If you have any questions, feel free to email me, send a note, or just have your child ask me at school and I will be glad to help! Our class is slowly getting into our routine. We have been working on getting our work done quickly but neatly. Look for SEP times; they will be coming home this week. Your students are doing great! Here's an overview of our week.
Language Arts: We will continue to learn about Nouns and begin learning about Proper Nouns.
Writing: We will learn about the Writing Process: Prewrite, Write, Revise, Edit, and Publish.
Reading: Tuesday and Wednesday I will have a sub in the morning. I will be pulling students to test their reading level. I will discuss this at our SEP conferences.
Math: The students have been doing great understanding tens and ones with place value. Please review Time at home. Make sure students are looking at the short hand first for the hour then the long hand for the minutes.
This week's math focus:
- Count by twos, fives, and tens.
- Identify numbers that are multiples of 2, 5, or 10.
- Classify numbers as even or odd.
- Read and show on-the-hour and half-hour times on an analog and digital clock.
- Solve problems that involve elapsed time.
