Classroom News



We had another action-packed week in second grade!  On Wednesday, we finally had beautiful weather for our P.E. Lab!  A big thank you to Mike Blanchard for organizing a wonderful hike to Mallory Brook!  I also greatly appreciate our parent volunteers who joined us for this special event.
During math class, we have been learning about fractions by dividing shapes and sets of objects into equal parts.  Each day, we have been talking about places where we have seen or used fractions, such as when baking, building, sharing food, and making teams at recess.  I encouraged students to continue looking for great examples of fractions at home. Feel free to email photos of your examples so we can share them in class.


In writing workshop, we are wrapping up our information writing unit by sharing our work with classmates and giving each other specific feedback.  In preparation for our student-led conferences, students are reflecting on their growth and setting goals for future writing pieces.


During Literacy and Discovery times, we have been putting the finishing touches on our “People Who Made a Difference” Book Creator projects.  I will post a longer blog post about this integrated unit very soon. We are looking forward to sharing these projects at our Celebration of Learning next week.


Have a great weekend!
