Announcements: There should be something that looks like this in your child's backpack, please open it and enjoy a few laughs and warm fuzzies Sunday for Mother's Day! These were SO fun to make with your kiddos, they LOVE you! Here is a link to a video we made for you, please go easy on me, it was my first time, I am not a producer by any means, but the thought (and love) was there!

Happy Mother's Day! Thank you for everything you do for your children and for me! Here's to hoping you wake up late to a clean home and brunch waiting for you!

Check out the fun we had this week:

O is for OUTSIDE! We had so much fun learning in the outdoor classroom!

Mrs. Smith was asked to help in first grade on Friday, so look who came in to help us! COACH COOK!

Here is a look at our learning next week:

Language arts: Next week will be a busy one! We will take a computerized test to measure our progress in second grade, because of this test, we will have new spelling words on Monday, and review words on Tuesday and Wednesday. In grammar we will review as well! Students will practice classifying sentences, completing contractions, and capitalizing proper nouns!

Math: Next week we will work hard and play hard in math! We will take our end of year assessments, both on the computer and on paper. Students will have 2 minutes to do as many addition problems as they can, then 2 minutes to do as many subtraction problems, and finally 2minutes to do as many multiplication problems as they can! We will spend time playing review games and working hard!

Science: We are done with science for the year! We will do some fun, hands on STEM activities this week to celebrate!

History: In History students will spring forward in history from the Civil War to a time when the United States was booming! We are starting our short unit on immigration! Students will learn where immigrants settled, and describe some contributions made by immigrants. We will also learn how immigrants can become citizens!
