We began the month of December studying sound in science and learning about measurement in math! Yesterday we went on a sound hunt inside and outside the school and many children were excited to try this as optional homework at home as well. We also read a measurement story called Measuring Penny which was a huge hit! The little girl in the story went wild measuring her dog's length, height, and weight! Our class is looking forward to choosing objects to measure at home for the next homework packet. The second grade standards for measurement are to measure in inches, feet, centimeters, and meters and be able to compare lengths of objects. We will also create graphs about our measurements and solve measurement word problems.
Thank you to Andrea LeBlanc for reading the story Trouble with Trolls to our class this afternoon after parent lunch! Please let me know if you'd like to be a guest reader for our class!
