Today in the second grade, we spent the morning:

• going through and returning our textbooks to the library
• practicing our typing 
• learning how to write new capital letters in cursive

We spent the afternoon:

• creating sidewalk chalk art 
• having a mid-afternoon pizza snack
• correcting the mistakes on our math exam
• practicing our latest class poem and listening to our latest class story

 

Tonight's Homework:

• Complete Handwriting Connections pg. 133-135. The students have started these pages in class, and most have finished.
  
  A few students forgot their book at home, and are encouraged to finish their work at home tonight and bring their Handwriting Connections with them tomorrow, as we will be doing cursive everyday until we have our cursive practice test next Tuesday, when the students will have a chance to apply for their cursive license!

Special Notes:

• The students will correct their exams in class throughout this week. Your child will bring his or her exams home by next Tuesday, May 26th at the very latest.
