This week in 2nd Grade…
Wow! What an amazing week. It was great to see you all at the Get-to-Know-You conferences. We really enjoyed learning more about your children. In math this week, we reviewed the hundreds chart, and coins. We looked at patterns in numbers, focused on making 10, and played a game called Fishing for 10. In Writing Workshop, we focused on stretching out a small moment and one-on-one conferencing with students. In Reading Workshop, we practiced how to stop and jot using sticky notes and began our center rotations. Students worked at a listening center, a writing center, Words Their Way centers, and partner reading. We also continued to focus on the virtue and value of curiosity. In social studies we focused on our family unit with ongoing discussions about why our family is special and what makes a family. We also did our movie read of our best friend book Fireflies by Julie Brinckloe.
