Second Grade Happenings March 12-16

Clocks have sprung forward and spring is almost here!  I am hoping that the saying is true - If March comes in like a lion, it will go out like a lamb.  I am really looking forward to taking advantage of warmer, longer days.

Just a reminder that our portfolio conferences are coming up on March 20 and 22. You should have gotten an email link from Mrs. Frischmann last week to sign up. Here it is if you haven't signed up yet:

The first base for the Timber Rattler Reading Program was due last Friday. You can still send it in early this week if your child is participating and met his/her goal.

This Friday is a special day: Wear Green!

Curriculum Updates:

Reading - We'll be finishing up our current unit and will begin reading from different book series next week.

Writing - Parents were able to enjoy our 2nd grade poetry collection at our Author's Breakfast on Thursday. We'll continue to write poetry this week, focusing in on what mentor authors do to make their poetry come alive.

Math - Our next focus from Unit 5 is graphing. Students will be learning to create picture graphs and bar graphs, how to read a graph, and how to answer compare questions using the data on graphs. We'll also continue to practice telling time to the nearest five minutes.

Social Studies - We'll be finishing up our Kaukauna history unit this week. Then we'll be moving onto Kaukauna government.
