The second graders will continue learning about force and motion in unit study. On Monday the students will be introduced to gravity and friction. Later in the week the students will explore magnets by finding items that are magnetic and nonmagnetic. Then students will discover that magnets have poles and that opposite poles attract.

Our measurement with length will conclude Tuesday in math. The students will show what they know about perimeter, area, and measuring in both metric and customary length. Beginning on Wednesday we will start learning about weight. First the students will weigh objects in ounces and pounds then grams and kilograms.
