May 2015

This past month in 2nd Grade, we wrapped up our school year with an introduction to multiplication and division, learning about motion/magnets, and writing amazing animal reports! We continued to be awesome readers and racked up tons of AR points for the AR store and we got to go on a field trip to Skate Away and Storybook Land.  It was a great year of fun and learning and since it was also my last year in 2nd Grade at Northwestern, I'll always remember it and these great kids! 

Happy Summer!

Last Day Treat: "freezies" 

April 2015

This past month in 2nd grade, we worked on different types of sentences: commands, statements, questions, and exclamations. We also talked about ways of communication and practiced writing emails and friendly letters.  In math, we worked on place value to the hundreds, plus adding and subtracting to the hundreds.  In science, we studied two types of energy: light and sound.  In social studies, we continued to work on map skills and even made our own treasure maps with compass rose and map key included!  We also did some technology projects including: making a antonym and synonym wordles, making a popplet, and using google maps. To celebrate Earth Day, we did a writing/craftivity on "If We Were the Lorax".  April was a busy month.  We jump into May with only 3 weeks to go!  We also say goodbye to our Student Teacher, Mr. Preszler.
