Happy Thanksgiving!

As November wraps up, we have been very busy in second grade!  This weekend, ask your child to tell you about:
*Our ornaments for the Town Hall Trees
*Their Wampanoag and Pilgrim book
*What their reading goal is
*Some "silver-dollar words" they used in their time of day poems
*An iPad app they enjoy using in our classroom

When we return to school next week, we will begin a measurement unit in math and in science we'll study sound!  We'll also continue to create paintings and poems for our "Time of Day" books in Artists/Writers Workshop.  In reading, we will focus on how to infer (inferring is how to understand things the author doesn't tell us!).  I look forward to an exciting and productive month of December with your child!

Wishing you a very happy Thanksgiving with your families!  Stay warm!
