Dear Parents,

This week we will not have a spelling test.  In language we will be learning the difference between possessive nouns and plural nouns.  We will also look at the difference between possessive nouns and contractions.  Both of these can be confusing for second graders. 

We will continue to learn about point of view by reading The Threee Little Pigs  and The True Story of the Three Little Pigs. One story is from the pigs' prospective and the other is from the wolf's.

In math we will continue our unit on measuring with centimeters and working with fractions.

Remember that spring break starts Friday!

Have a wonderful week!
Amy

Happy Monday Parents!

It was so good to see so many of you Saturday having fun at the Pow Wow.  I think it was the best one yet!

Today we started our quarterly writing assessment.  This quarter we are writing our opinions.  The writing process takes several days, and we will take it step by step.  Our spelling pattern this week is 3 letter blends. We will also begin learning about possessive nouns.  Today we took our Unit 6 math test over geometry.  We will continue this unit with a few more geometry activities this week.  We also planted pea and corn seeds today.  We will be measuring their growth in the weeks to come!

Just a reminder that the 2nd grade performance will be Thursday, March 15th at 7:00p.m.  More information will be coming about that soon!

Have a great week!
Amy
