8/6

Hello Families,

Happy second week of second grade. I hope everyone had a great restful weekend!

Last week the students participated and learned about the Olympics! We had a great time enjoying the games, learning facts, and making goals. The students also learned about the procedures of the class and school.

This week we are going to journey through a novel study, place value, and our brain!
In language arts we are reading Get ready for Second Grade Amber Brown, a fun story about Amber Brown's adventure through the beginning of second grade. In unit study we will be exploring the parts of the brain. Last year we learned about the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem and by the end of this week the students will know about the different lobes of the brain. Do you know how many we have? In math we will be reviewing place value. What is the value of the 8 in 89? If you do not know you will by the end of the week.

We are going to have a great week!
