Each student drafted a letters to Gregory a character from The Chalk Box Kid their writer’s notebook, typed it into google docs and shared it, so that we could help with formatting. This is just one example of how we are striving to use technology in an authentic way this year. Second graders also used colored chalk to make pictures of Gregory's chalk garden or a garden they would like to have in the future. Look for these pieces in our hallway this week.
Our Topic 5 math unit is on place value. Writing number words, showing expanded form and comparing numbers are all included. For example, identifying 63, knowing 10 more/10 less and deconstructing into 6 tens + 3 ones. Recognizing even/odd numbers is also expected. Please practice recognizing, reading and writing numbers at home.
