Math
We finished up our 3-digit additon/subtraction unit and are now beginning our measurement and geometry unit.
Religion
We are preparing for May Crowning and praying the rosary to honor Mary. Please be sure to join us next Thursday at Holy Cross for Mass and the May Crowning ceremony. Refer to the note I sent home earlier regarding those details.
Literacy
Our play is coming together! The children are doing quite well with their lines and are getting their movements down. The set is the most elaborate 2nd grade set we've ever had! Don't forget to join us on Wednesday, May 21 @ 1:00. If that time doesn't work, we will be doing a dress rehearsal on the same day at 9:30. Please send your child's costume next week so that we are all set for the big performance!
Science
Oh, what fun we are having! Last week the students learned about the water cycle. To assess their knowledge, I asked them to explain the water cycle in regards to the "cloud in a jar" demonstration we did. Please check out our Voice Thread below. And this week we are working extremely hard on our planet research and presentation. I cannot get over the ambition and creativity of the students! I can't tell you any more, but stay tuned to see what they have created!
