Team 202,
Here’s what’s happening this week:
Jump Rope for Heart – Jump Rope for Heart donations are due Friday, March 10th. Keep sending them in. Additional forms are available upon request. This is such a great way for our students and families to support those in our community and WE THANK YOU!!!
Reading & Writing –During this reading unit, starring Alexander Who Used to Be Rich Last Sunday, we will focus on the structure of a story, that describing a character’s actions, thoughts, and feelings enhances a story, and that people make decisions based on their needs and wants.
Math - We started Unit 4 – Measurement this week. We will be discovering the importance of using a standard unit of measurement, adding lengths, comparing lengths (how much longer is this than that), and that the bigger the unit of measurement (yards) the smaller the number of units. Conversely, the smaller the unit of measurement (inches), the greater the number of units. This is a very challenging concept for 2nd graders so any support you can provide at home is greatly appreciated! J Remember to log into ReflexMath.com to get your green light at least 3 times a week.
Science – We are continuing our explorations of rocks and their sizes. Rocks are made of minerals. Rocks can change into something else, but minerals can’t.
Spelling – Our Week 18 spelling words include sight words, final blend -sk, and academic vocabulary. The test for these words will be on Friday, March 10th. You can get extra practice by going to https://www.spellingcity.com/knorgard/.
Make-up Days – Here is the link to the revised calendar that the district has provided. Please note that some early release days have been changed to full days.
Plastic – Please send in any plastic bags or wrapping for our school-wide plastic drive!
Box Tops – Keep saving and sending in your box tops and labels for education. Our school wide class competition is over, however I will continue to collect them.
Hope you have a wonderful week!
