Monday, Oct. 18th

Happy Monday! Today we had an insect museum to show off our insects to the other 2nd graders and the 1st graders! All the students had their insects out and got to answer questions and tell the other kids about their insects.  Ms. Stocks even came in to see our hard work!
In math we reviewed time, money, patterns, and fact families.  My biggest area of concern right now is money for all the students.  We are having a hard time remembering that a dollar can be made in several ways (a dollar bill, 4 quaters, 3 quarters 2 dimes and a nickel, etc.) We will keep practicing this until we all master it!
In writing we introduced contractions and continued emphasis in punctuation.  Students seem to remember . and ! but have a hard time recognizing when to use a ? We will also continue to work on this. 

I hope you all had a chance to look at the go-home folder on Friday.  Remember that Spiritwear orders are due on Friday.
Have a great night!
