This week in 2nd Grade...
Reading- Students are reading a series with a partner and collecting information about the stars (main characters) of their books. Who are the stars, how do they feel and behave? What kinds of trouble do they encounter and how do they respond to that trouble? What are these characters' relationships like? As they read more books in the series they'll think and talk together about the similarities and differences that they find across the series.
Writing- We were so excited to start our Poetry Unit this week! We've been reading poetry in class and in Portuguese as well. Now the children will begin writing their own!
Math- This week we are finishing up Unit 9, which has focused on measurement and equivalent measures of length, capacity and weight.
Social Studies- Students are learning about economics, specifically how goods are produced and distributed. Next we will look at jobs, services and who provides them within a community.
Extensions for Learning/ Notices & Reminders:
