Welcome to 2nd grade!

Donations Needed for November Reading Unit:  My reading class is in need of clear, clean, plastic, 2 Liter bottles (please tear the labeling off),index cards,and lots of scotch tape.  We are doing a project called the "Mayflower Mobile".  Please send in anything you can.  I greatly appreciate all of your help.  Thank you so very very very much!

PS> I think we have enough yarn now.  So just focus on the other materials.  Thank you so much!

Singapore Math is in full swing and the students are doing very well!

We have been using a new strategy in class and throughout the school called "ACE".  It stands for A-answer the question, C-Cite evidence,  and E-explain your answer.  Here is a website that explains and gives examples of ACE.  Your child will see this next year as well.
