Quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons...our geometry unit is in full swing! The students should be able to recognize and draw shapes with specific attributes. We'll continue this into next week.
In science we've been learning all about food chains, plant parts, and living/nonliving things. The class is having so much fun exploring this life science unit.
We have two weeks of sight words left. After we're finished with these
words, the kids will spend the remainder of the year reviewing words. Each week
for "Totally Sight Word Tuesday", your child can pick any five words (from our
80 total) to practice. Each Friday, they will have a sight word test on five
random words from our list. By the end of second grade, the students should be
able to read and write all 80 of these sight words. I will send a master list
home soon; please keep this list as a reference for the rest of second
grade.
Thank you for sending back your field trip permission slip and payment so
promptly. We will be attending Lewis University on April 16th. If you haven't
turned this in yet, please do so by Thursday.
The Domino's Pizza Fundraiser is due back to school on Monday. The class
that sells the most pizza cards will earn a FREE pizza party! The child that
sells the most will win free pizza for a YEAR!!!
I can't wait to meet with all of you at conferences next week! If you need
a reminder of your conference time, please email me. Don't forget if you're
coming to school for your conference, please bring your second grader along.
