Today in the second grade, we:

• prepared for our weekly sharing time tomorrow by working on an outline of what we would like to present, continued to work with constructing complete sentences, and continued our unit on handwriting in language and spelling class
• pair read "Henry and Mudge and the Yellow Moon" and discussed the author's purpose in reading and phonics class
• worked with today's number (15) and practiced using a number line to subtract in math class 
• took our unit 1 quiz in social studies class
• completed unit 1 and reviewed for tomorrow's quiz with a game of Jeopardy in science class

Tonight's Homework:

• Complete Math Practice pg. 2.7-3.2.
• Read aloud for 15 minutes and have a parent sign your reading log. 
• Study for tomorrow's science quiz on unit 1.
• Practice talking about your favorite toy in front of your family. You will have two minutes in front of the class tomorrow during our weekly sharing time. 
  
  *The students prepared an outline of what they want to present. On the back of their outline is a rubric of the points I will be grading their presentation on.
  
  These are questions you can answer:
  
  1. What is your favorite toy?
  2. When did you get your favorite toy?
  3. Who gave it to you?
  4. When do you like to play with it?
  5. Where do you like to play with it?
  6. Why do you like it more than other toys?

Announcements: 

• Tomorrow is the second Friday of the month, meaning that the students are able to wear their own clothes for the day! They still need to bring an extra shirt to change into after P.E., please. I look forward to seeing my students in their everyday clothes!
