Catching up on our news from before Thanksgiving, the second grade classroom has a lot to be thankful for!
We hope everyone had a restful and stuffed Thanksgiving break and we are heading full swing into the holiday season!
In math we will soon begin addition with regrouping. This week we focused on reviewing our two and three digit addition skills and played a number line game adding and subtracting from 0-100.
We made Thankful Hands and symmetry turkeys.
In science and social studies we are finishing up food webs/chains and continuing to learn about different types of landforms.
Our Author Study unit has begun, now until Christmas break the classes will be studying different authors like Peggy Parrish (Amelia Bedelia}, Robert Munsch (Thomas's Snow Suit), David Adler (Cam Jansen), just to name a few....we are looking forward to all we will learn about these great authors and more!
Is now Zipping into the New Year!
It has become a tradition at St. Paul’s for classes to bring toiletries for the patrons of the Church Pantry at Christmastime. The previous Shoebox Christmas has become Zipping into the New Year and is sponsored by the entire Lower School division, Grades One through Five. Your donated items will be packed with care into ‘zip-lock’ bags, and delivered as expressions of good will. Each student is invited to bring one or more items in the grade level suggestions. Travel or small sizes are requested. We will be very grateful if you also choose to send a compliment of gallon size Ziploc bags! Here is the suggested list:
Second Grade:
Toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash
Monday, Dec.3rd begin bringing items
Thursday, Dec. 20th request for items to be brought in.
Students fill gift bags with items and good wishes for a Happy New Year. Bags will be delivered to Church Pantry on the 21st.
We are so very grateful for your participation and generosity. Thank you so very much. Gingie Watt Division Head 816-268-6549
