Lots of Learning in 2nd Grade

Here are our long o spelling words for this week - our test in on Friday:

ago     bowl     float     goat     hold     most     open     show     slow     toad     toast     told

Our extra-credit spelling words are:  answer     photograph     smudged

This week in Math we'll learn how to create a number line, how to measure to the nearest inch, we'll make polygons and identify the angles of polygons. We'll also start adding together three or more single digit numbers, and on Thursday we'll learn how to name a fractional part of a set. We have a math test next Monday, January 20th.

In Social Studies we're studying current events this week. It would be appreciated if you could send in a newspaper with your child tomorrow or Wednesday. The newspaper can be up to one week old. In Science, we learned about forests and deserts today, and we'll study ocean and rainforest habitats on Friday.

In Language Arts, we're learning about synonyms and antonyms this week, and in Writing we're journaling about "What Makes A Good Friend." It's a great connection to our school's January theme of reNEWal.

In Religion, we're busy! We are practicing for next Tuesday's breakfast Mass AND we're studying how God helps us make good choices. Mass parts are coming home tomorrow. We're so glad many of you will be there!

It's a busy week, but we're all ready for it!
