PICTURE DAY IS WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 19th! Remember to bring your Smile!
What's happening this week: Essential Question: How are families around the world the same and different? Comprehension Skill: Character, Setting, and Events Comprehension Strategy: Visualize Spelling Words: Short e, o, u sounds. We are getting the hang of things in our second grade class. :) Our center rotations are off to a great start and we are spending time together in small groups reading daily. We are working on vocabulary, reading fluency, and comprehension skills. In writing we are starting, "The Best Part of Me" Writing Piece. We will be going through the entire writing process and learning what good Writers do. In Math we are working on place value and how to understand the value of a digit. We are understanding that numbers can be written many different ways and we are exploring those ways. (picture form, expanded form, standard form, and tens & ones form) We are doing math centers with place value games, and continuing our studies in ST math. We are also learning about the power of water on our earth in science! Stay tuned for all our fun learning on Seesaw!

I just wanted to take the time to share with you all that we have had a wonderful first full week of school! I have so enjoyed getting to know each and every one of your children and I know we are going to have a great year. Our classroom community is growing stronger and we are all becoming more comfortable sharing our thoughts and ideas. Thank you for bringing awesome children to school everyday. I am very excited for our school year together! We are off to a great start on classroom routines / procedures and getting better everyday! We have been learning all about being a good friend, listener, and classroom citizen. Next week we will be focusing on launching reading comprehension strategies & digging a little deeper into our learning. Thanks for your continued support at home! Hugs, Mrs. Huskey Hello Families,
