Where do we start? Well, a favorite activity today was Gummy Bear Graphing - we had fun counting, graphing, and then eating our gummy bears for math! In Science, we finished our weather unit and watched a weather forecast to see what we could learn. We had our school-wide vision screening this morning, and also got to visit the 7th grade room to see some of the beautiful instruments that our middle-schoolers made.
This week we also practiced a tornado drill (just as a class) so that we're prepared if the school has a drill. The entire school also had a fire drill this week. Both went very well!
There's no spelling test next week since it's a short week. We do have a religion test on Monday. All of the students were given a study guide today and I suggested they take it home to study. The test is open book and open notes, which means they can use any of their notes as well as their religion book.
As I mentioned, next week is a short week. We fell a little behind in math due to our safety drills, vision testing, and our middle school instrument visit. Therefore, on Monday we'll learn how to name a fractional part of a whole, how to start comparing fractions, and how to write fractions. On Tuesday we'll learn how to trade in pennies for dimes.
ONE MORE NOTE: Free dress down day on Monday for 2nd grade - yay!!! We earned it by having our wing bring in the most food for the Student Council food drive. Congratulations!
Have a great weekend!
