FUN with Fundations!

This week students reviewed bonus letters as well as glued sounds in Fundations. This group is constantly impressing me with their knowledge of spelling principles! In Writer's Workshop we are working hard to spell challenging words independently. Ask your child how to 'tap' out a multi syllabic word!

Lucien, Addison, Michael and Lana show how they can 'mark up' bonus letters, glued sounds, and closed syllable words!

Writer's Workshop: Map of My Heart

In Writer’s Workshop this week we read a fun mentor text ‘The Best Story’ and students brainstormed ideas for a ‘Map of My Heart’. We will be doing a lot of writing in our classroom over the next few weeks to celebrate the fall and Halloween season just around the corner.

Busy, busy writers!

Parent Seminar Night

Thank you to all parents who attended Parent Seminar! It was great to meet you and share our second grade curriculum, our classroom, and some of your child’s hard work. Thank you to all parents who will be contributing their time to volunteer in our school and classroom. You are so generous!
