We've had a wonderful week of learning in second grade. This week we continued our unit of measurement by informally exploring the concept of proportions. Using Jim and the Beanstalk, students used pictures of "giant" sized objects to measure other objects such as a rake, ladder, and door.
Wednesday's field trip to the UVM Women's Basketball game was a lot of fun. The children were so well behaved and were great fans! Children who attended the game were given a journal, courtesy of VSAC!
Today your child is bringing home their writing folder from our Nonfiction writing unit. Inside you will find their published nonfiction book. Enjoy looking through all the wonderful writing!
Other Things to Ask Your Child About:
~How Tall is the Giant's Door?
~Reading at a just-right pace
~Writing about more than one part of a book
~Our guest teacher, Miss McMorrow:)
I hope you all have a wonderful vacation. See you in March!
Katie
