Terrific Tuesday, 5/4
Happy Tuesday, Everyone!
THANK YOU to all my wonderful students for the beautiful pink flowers, the thoughtful cards, letters and poems and for your encouraging words! You are all making Teacher Appreciation Week so special for me! I am truly touched by your kindness. I appreciate all of YOU! You are the sweetest second graders around!
Our first week of May is off to a fun and busy start! There are just 12 more school days left. Can you believe it???
Yesterday and today we took a quick break from our Shel Silverstein author study and Eric Carle five paragraph essay. Our guided reading and writing focused on Mother's Day! We learned all about the history of Mother's Day and how Mother's Day is celebrated on the 7 continents. Our writing activities this week will have to remain secret until Sunday! Moms - your kids have been working hard in writing to make your day extra special!
Tomorrow we pick up with our Shel Silverstein author study. Our focus in guided reading is on the trait of voice and how it creates meaning in a poem. Tomorrow in writing we will work on finishing the 3rd paragraph of our Eric Carle five paragraph essay. We will also have time to finish our super secret Mother's Day projects! It should be a Wonderful Wednesday!
We finished our study of measurement today. We practiced weighing objects around our classroom using a variety of different scales. The children were introduced to new scales today; we learned about food scales, balance scales and spring and hook scales. Kids - be sure to tell your parents what we learned! Tomorrow will be a review day for chapter 9 and our test is on Thursday. We will jump right into chapter 10 on Friday and we will be busy mathematicians over the next 12 days of school!
It's the last call for BOX TOPS!!! Please bring in your box tops tomorrow, Wednesday, May 5. This will be the last collection for the year. Thank you for your participation this year!
We are in the final push! Let's keep working hard until the end!
Last week 5 students received a prize for being the first 5 students to correctly answer all the questions on my blog. Who will get the prizes this time? Please comment on THIS BLOG ONLY with your name and responses to the questions. Please make sure your answers are in complete sentences. Good Luck!
Have a super week!
