I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I am looking forward to another busy and exciting week ahead in Room 202!
Curriculum Update
Literacy
Last week in Literacy we read the book Farfallina and Marcel by Holly Keller and discussed the question, "How do animals change as they grow?". We also learned about the letter "D" and continued to review the sight words me, see, and look.
The children had a great time making "dotted dogs" as we practiced the letter D!
Math
Subtraction has been our major focus in math and the children are doing a fantastic job developing their understanding of this sometimes tricky concept! Last week we continued to practice solving subtraction number sentences that included the minus and equals signs. We also learned that you can cross off objects in a picture to show "taking away".
White boards made writing our subtraction number sentences even more fun and engaging!
Last week also kicked off the beginning of Word Problem Wednesday! From now until the end of the school year, the students will practice solving both addition and subtraction word problems on Wednesdays during math!
Reading Buddies
What better way to end a busy week then to enjoy a book with our Reading Buddies! Reading Buddy time has become a fast favorite on Friday afternoons. We love reading with our second grade friends from Mrs. Davis's class!
Thanks so much for stopping by to learn about all that is new in Room 202! Have a great week!
