Well, here we are, a few days into the month of May! This school year has gone so quickly. I can't begin to tell you how much I have enjoyed watching your 2nd graders blossom. It has been a wonderful year! Please look over the following information about the last 3 weeks of school and, as always, let me know if you have any questions.
Math: We have finished up Unit 7 in math. For the next several days, students will be reviewing some 2nd grade skills (telling time, counting money, working with fractions, etc.), as well as pre-learning some 3rd grade skills (multiplication and division). If you are interested in resources to work with your child at home this summer, let me know!
Language Arts: We have wrapped up reading groups for the school year and are currently working on whole-group literacy activities using shared literature. Students still receive Daily 5 time each day, and small groups of students are participating in fluency practice and word work with me. Next week, our morning Language Arts block will be used for our "Teach the Class" projects. Please make sure your child has returned his or her form letting me know what he or she plans to teach by tomorrow. I will have a teaching schedule to you by Friday.
Writing: Our opinion writing unit ended last week. I saw a lot of growth in the 2nd graders' ability to state an opinion in a convincing way and support the opinion with detailed reasons and examples. We are wrapping up the school year with a short unit on poetry writing. This would be a great time to share some poetry books at home with your child!
Science: Our last science unit is on animals and their habitats, plants and their biomes, and how they all work together in different ecosystems. Our class is focusing on desert, wetland, ocean, and grassland ecosystems. This week, each child is researching an animal that lives in one of those four ecosystems. Please check your e-mail in a couple of days for information about an at-home project involving the animal your child is researching.
Please make note of the following dates in your calendars if you are not already done so. Again, thank you so much for your help and support in our classroom this year. I will miss you all next year, and hope to work with many of you again! Have a WONDERFUL summer!

April News
Wow...where did the month of March go? I can't believe we are in the second to last month of school! Please look over the following curriculum information and important dates, and let me know if you have any questions.
Math:
Today, students took their unit 6 math test. We will begin our next and final unit on Monday. During unit 7, students will study fractions, number lines, word problems, and measurements. Students will also participate in an introduction to multiplication using rectangular arrays.
Reading:
Students will continue their guided reading groups until about the 1st week of May, when we stop for assessments. As always, let me know if you have questions or concerns about your child's reading level. If you are looking for new ways to support your child's reading comprehension at home, shoot me an e-mail and I can pass on some resources to you. Now is also a great time to start thinking about summer reading plans. I will be sending out a flyer in a few weeks with information about a 2-day second grade reading club that I plan to host in DeVictor Park. If you think your child would benefit from some one-on-one tutoring during the summer months in reading (or any other subject), I am happy to provide you with names of staff members who offer tutoring services.
Writing:
We are plugging away at our opinion writing unit! Students continue writing opinion letters about books. During the past few weeks, our class has practiced organizing a writing piece into parts that make sense, giving supporting reasons and evidence to convince a reader that your opinion is correct, keeping your audience in mind while writing, using transition words such as "also", "another", and "for example", and using the writing process effectively. Next week, students will learn how to "award" books for different achievements.
Social Studies:
We are in the middle of our "Journey to Freedom" unit. This week and last, students studied a book on Abraham Lincoln. We used this time to review text features, identifying the main idea and details of a non-fiction text, and re-reading a text closely to learn information. Next week our class will be studying the book Lead Us to Freedom, Harriet Tubman! By the end of April, we will be ready to move on to our study of world geography and folktales from around the world.
Fun Things:
* We really enjoyed the production of Peter and the Wolf at the Lawrence Arts Center last week!
* This week was our annual Wellness Week. It was great seeing so many of you at the Fitness Fair on Tuesday! I am happy to report that our class came in 2nd place in the annual smoothie competition yesterday.
* The class has enjoyed sharing some of the "Mr. Putter and Tabby" books by Cynthia Rylant. You might want to check them out the next time you at the library!

March Updates
I really enjoyed meeting with all of you last week at conferences! Your 2nd graders have shown so much growth this year, and it's been so much fun watching them learn and progress. I can't believe spring is already just a few weeks away!
This week, we began our new unit in math. During the course of this unit, students will be working with numbers up to 1,000. We will be focusing on showing 3-digit numbers in different ways, as well as adding and subtracting with these larger numbers. This would be a great time to do some counting practice at home with your child! In particular, focus on counting (by 1's, 5's, or 10's) past the next "hundred". For example, ask your child to start at 435 and count by 5's until he or she gets to 535. Pay special attention to how your child does when approaching and passing 500. A family letter is coming home today with information about this math unit.
In science, we continue our study of water. This week, students are learning about the different bodies of water. Next week, we will talk about the different landforms and how water helps form them. After this science unit, we will be doing short social studies unit on the African American journey to freedom. During this unit we will focus on the Civil War, the influence of Harriet Tubman, and the works of Langston Hughes.
During our Writer's Workshop time, we will be working on opinion writing for the next six weeks. Specifically, students will be learning how to write about opinions they have about books. This unit will focus on writing convincing letters to different audiences.
We have finished our Mr. Popper's Penguins read aloud. In honor of Dr. Seuss' birthday yesterday, we are now reading a biography about Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss). Later this week, we will play a trivia game about Dr. Seuss in our classroom.
Please make note of the following dates in your calendars. As always, let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Have a great week!
March 16-20 - Spring Break
March 25 - Birthday Breakfast - Happy birthday Owen, Neely, and Eden!
March 27 - "Peter and the Wolf" at the Lawrence Arts Center
March 31 - Family Fitness Fair - 6:00

February News
Lots of things are going on in our classroom! We have wrapped up several units and are started many new things.
Last week, students finished math Unit 4. They did such a wonderful job learning to subtract larger numbers! Our current unit involves clocks and recording data. This week, students are working on how to read the time on both analog and digital clocks. Next week, we will begin looking at picture graphs and bar graphs and studying how they can be used to record data. As we get further into our unit, students will compose and answer word problems about data presented on a graph.
We are still working hard on narrative writing! This week, students are finishing up their collection of personal narrative rough drafts. Next week, each student will chose one piece he or she is particularly proud of to share at our publishing party. Our next Writer's Workshop unit is on opinion writing. Now would be a great time to start discussing issues kids might have opinions on at home!
In Social Studies last week, we took a few days to study the symbols of Kansas. Students participated in a group research project and presented information about an assigned symbol to the class. Their presentations were wonderful, and their posters are on display outside our classroom. Be sure to stop by if you are in the building! We are now beginning our next major science unit. For the next few weeks, students will be studying water. This week, we are looking at the different forms that water can take and locating where it can be found on Earth. Next week, we will start studying erosion and comparing methods that can be used to slow or prevent water from changing the shape of the land.
Now that winter assessments are complete, we are back to our normal routines for reading groups, math groups, and spelling units of study. As always, please let me know if you have any questions about curriculum or your child's progress. Please make note of the following dates on your calendars. As always, thank you for all you do to support our classroom! Have an excellent week!

January News
Happy New Year! 2015 has gotten off to a strong start in our classroom. We've been busy as always. Here's what's going on in second grade this month!
We are continuing unit 4 in math. Students have been learning many different strategies for subtracting two and three-digit numbers. We've looked at the traditional method of borrowing, and have also practiced counting up from the smaller number. Students are encouraged to subtract using whatever methods work best for them. Thank you for all your support at home with this important skill! Throughout the next week, we will practice using the strategies learned in trickier story problems, including those with multiple steps. There are several links to the right that are for math subtraction games. Check them out!
During our Writer's Workshop, students continue to practice writing personal narratives. Over the past couple of weeks, we have had discussions about writing with intent and using "tips and tricks" from well-known children's authors like Jane Yolen. Students are encouraged to use comparisons in their writing, look in different resources to find meaningful words that bring out the mood of a story, and revise writing to make it sound better and better. I love seeing the stories your 2nd graders are writing about their lives! We will wrap up our narrative writing unit in a few weeks.
In language arts, we continue to work with the 2nd grade sight word list in our classroom. We should be ready to begin our next spelling unit next Wednesday. During our read-aloud time, we are reading a variety of picture books that have been nominated for the 2015 Bill Martin Junior award. Our class will have the opportunity to vote on our favorite book the first week of February. It's been a lot of fun reading some new, great literature! We are also getting ready to begin one of my favorite books...Mr. Popper's Penguins.
This week, we are finishing up our unit on the "Wild West". Students have been learning about the historical significance of the Pony Express in the 1800s and comparing communication methods from that time period to communication methods today. For Social Studies next week, students will look at the life of Martin Luther King Junior. After that, we will move into our next big science unit. For the first time this year, second graders will be studying water. Students will work with assigned partners to prepare a short presentation for the class about an experiment that can be done with water. More information on this project will be coming home soon.
By the beginning of next week, I hope to be finished with January testing in reading and math. If you have questions about your child's progress that you would like to discuss before conferences at the end of February, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'd love to talk with you!
Please make note of the following dates on your calendars. As always, thank you for all you do to support our classroom! Have a great afternoon!

December Happenings
I hope that you all had a wonderful Fall Break with your families! Students have done a great job of getting right back to work and are really challenging themselves here at school, even though they know that Winter Break is right around the corner. These three weeks can be tough, but we do have a lot going on in our classroom!
Unit 4 in math has gotten off to a good start. We opened up the unit with a review of coins. Students are now learning to count amounts that go over a dollar, and continue practicing writing money amounts using the correct label. Yesterday, your 2nd grader brought home a small bag with directions about bringing in some coins to use in the classroom for extra money practice. If you are able, please send this back by Monday. It's so helpful to have real coins to use for practice. Coins will be returned at the end of the school year. During this unit, we will also begin looking at methods for subtracting 2-digit numbers. Students will learn how to ungroup to make new tens as needed. At home, please take some time to work with your child on basic subtraction facts. Speed and efficiency with these facts will really help as the numbers being subtracted become larger!
We are having a lot of fun writing personal narratives. Students are learning important writing skills from master writers and are gaining confidence with practicing some of these craft moves in their own writing. This week, we are discussing the different things that master writers do and why they do them. We've had some good conversations about the tricks that make readers feel part of a story. I love seeing 2nd graders getting so involved with the writing process! They are showing real pride with their work, and I can't wait to share some of their pieces with you at our next conference. We are also working on a super-secret writing project in our spare time...look forward to seeing those in just a couple of weeks!
This week's spelling work is a study of homophones. As you work on these words with your 2nd grader, please be sure to take some time to discuss not only the correct spelling of the words, but also what the words mean and why they are homophones (they sound alike but are spelled differently and have different meanings).
For the next few weeks, students will be looking at the historical significance of the "wild west". This week, we have looked at a variety of tall tales. We have talked about the importance of story-telling during a time when TV and computers weren't available. Students are learning the traits of tall tales and comparing various versions of similar stories. See if your child can tell you about how tall tales are stories about normal people who are "bigger than life" in some way, and how the tales have been passed down and exaggerated over many years. Next week, we will be digging into some fairy tales that have been re-set in the west!
Please make note of the following dates. The next few weeks are going to be pretty jam-packed! Thanks, as always, for all that you do. If you have any questions about current curriculum or your child's progress, feel free to call, e-mail, or drop by at any time. Have a great weekend!

November Events
It has been wonderful meeting with all of you during conferences these past couple of days. Your 2nd graders have been working so hard, and I have really enjoyed sharing their achievements with you. Here's what's going on in our classroom this month!
We will be wrapping up our third math unit next week. During this unit, students have worked with estimation, measurement, and shapes. We will have our unit 3 test before Fall Break, and plan to begin unit 4 right after the break. Unit 4 deals with subtracting 2-digit numbers. This would be a great time to help your child brush up on his or her basic addition and subtraction facts! To the right of this post, you can find a few interactive math games to help with this. Let me know if you would like additional resources.
2nd graders have successfully completed their first major unit of Writer's Workshop! We will now be shifting gears from informative writing to narrative writing. During this unit, students will learn skills to write about "small moments" they have experienced. We will be digging into the books Owl Moon and The Leaving Morning to discover how experienced authors compose meaningful personal narratives. At home during the course of this unit, please encourage your child to talk with you about meaningful life moments he or she would like to write about in class.
It has been so much fun studying about the human body during the past few weeks! We've looked at some great books and websites, and I really enjoyed hearing the presentations the student's put together. I couldn't believe how motivated and creative they were! All students did a great job showing teamwork and using advanced research skills to learn new information. We will now be taking a break from science and health for several weeks in order to begin our first big Social Studies unit! Students will spend time comparing life in America long ago to life in America now. They will learn about immigration and what it means to be a pilgrim. We will then spend a few weeks learning about the wild west! Students will see what happens when popular fairy tales are re-written to be set in the wild west, and will learn what it was like to be a Pony Express rider. Be sure to check in with your child periodically to see what fun projects are happening in 2nd grade!
Thanks again for taking time to meet with me this week. I enjoy each and every one of my students, and I am so thankful for support they receive from such great families. As always, feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you have about upcoming curriculum. Please note the following dates. Have a great weekend!
