Today students practiced possessive nouns by writing about what their family’s favorite food, games, and colors are. We also did Word Detective with –ay and –ai words that make the long a sound. Students found that words that end in the long a sound are spelt with –ay. Words that have a sound before and after the long a sound are spelt with –ai.

Ms. Paxton hung the students’ letters to someone they thought was a good leader.

In math, students did explorations. One center was making numbers using base-10 blocks, one was making a clock book, the third was making shapes with the geo boards, and the last was taking a unit pre-test with me.

Tomorrow students will write their own rain poem. Today, we created a list of words to create our poem.

The 2nd Grade music program is tomorrow evening at 6:00 pm. Please have your child to room 6 by 5:45 wearing a plain red, white, or blue t-shirt. The students have been working very hard are very excited to show off their talents singing, playing instruments, and dancing.
