We're already midway through the second quarter! It is hard to believe how fast time is flying by. I'm proud of my students for working hard during these busy days.

Today in the second grade, we:

• learned more about humility  in assembly
• took our weekly spelling quiz and practiced using "run," "ran," "come," and "came" correctly in language and spelling class
• interpreted data using tally charts, pictographs and bar graphs in math class
• practiced syllabification in reading and phonics class
• discussed the different branches of the U.S. government in social studies class

Tonight's homework:

• Reading Response Journal (either the worksheet OR 6-8 sentences and a picture in your language notebook)
• Complete Handwriting Connections pg. 52-53. 

Next week's spelling words (for Monday, November 24th) will come from Horizons pg. 52-73. We will now have 10 words assigned for our spelling quiz:

1.election
2. appointed
3. majority
4. ballot
5. president
6. property
7. border
8. capital
9. congress
10. governor
