We have two weeks of school left, here's what we're up to...
Math- we will be discussing what the equal sign means ("is the same as").
For example, 10 + 5 = 7 + 8. This is called the communicative property. In grade 2 we explore this idea by looking at addition sentences. Students will also work towards filling in the missing addend in similar equations (10 + 5 = 4 + __ ).
Literacy- we are continuing to work on synthesizing. In writing, we are working on persuasive. Most students are finished their letters to Mr. Slack. We had lots of great opinions and letters! Next, the students will write a letter to their parents persuading them to get them a specific pet.
Homework and WWW- the last set of WWW went home today. This is the last week for this, meaning there will be no new words for the last week of school.
Science- we are continuing the unit on Air and Water in the Environment. Following Thursdays quiz, we will talk about melting and evaporating, uses for air and water, and describing air and water.
Mini Water Cycle (Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Conservation (or Collection)
Art- we are currently working on dance.
We're getting close to the end, but there's still lots to do and learn!
