News from Ms. Weber!

I hope everyone had a wonderful spring break. Also, I hope everyone had an amazing time on our field trip on Friday. Thank you to all the parents who volunteered to attend with us and help dye our t-shirts.

We had a great week back in second grade.

In reading we've continued to focus on finding the theme in stories. They all have done a wonderful job with this concept. Everyone has also been working hard on reading for meaning in book groups. 

We started a new unit in math, we will be focusing on measuring for the next few weeks. We began the unit measuring with non-standard units such as paper clips and mini cubes. We have many fun activities planned for this unit. 

In writing we are continuing to work on opinion pieces. We are comparing three monster themed books (The Monster's Monster, I Need My Monster, and The Monstore) to convince readers which is the best. Our goal is to add good voice to our writing. 

Thank you to those who have brought in items for our service learning project. It's getting close...we're so excited!
