December News

It's hard to believe that winter is nearly here!  The 2W Bobcats have been working hard and are ready for a break.  Here's what's going on in our classroom!

Morning Meetings:  Review of growth mindset, sharing information about our family traditions, working together

Reading: Long “e” spelling patterns, reviewing author’s purpose, reading about what it means to be creative. Please note that we will not be staring a new Reading Street unit next week.

Writing: The writing process, information writing, verbs, super-secret holiday projects

Math: Properties of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional shapes, measuring length in centimeters and inches

Social Studies: Comparing life in the past with life in the present, studying the history of landmarks and buildings in Lawrence, comparing holiday celebrations around the world

Technology: Using iPads to show knowledge of math concepts, research strategies

Have a WONDERFUL winter break!  I look forward to seeing your 2WBobcats again in 2019!
