April 25-29

Sorry for the late post this week!

A special thanks to our Law Week reader yesterday, Mrs. Lukin, who came to read to the 2nd graders to teach them about the upcoming elections in the fall! Our students learned a lot and had fun, too! Thanks Mrs. Moore for coordinating this for us! :)

Here are some important updates:

1) Second grade has collected enough toilet paper and paper towel rolls for our Winds of Time costumes! THANK YOU to anyone who contributed!

2) Progress reports went home yesterday. Please sign and return!

3) Please (if you haven't already) continue to send your pillow cases for our Winds of Time togas! We will have parent volunteers cutting them Tuesday, May 3rd so we need them by then! Thanks for your help!

Here's what we are learning this week:

Reading: We will look at series books! We will use series books to study characters, their traits and feelings and how characters generally stay the same over a series!

Writing: We will continue our SFML unit!

Math: We are starting TIME! Yay! Look for the yellow "math to home connection" letter to see what we will be learning!

Science: We are starting our bird research for our bird books! Ask your student what bird they will be studying and come to publisher's picnic later in May to see the final product!

Social Studies: We are wrapping up our economics unit!
