March 10 - 14

This week will be busy with the spring concert, a field trip, an early dismissal day, and the CoGAT test. Here is a look at what we will be doing in class this week.

Math- Students have been learning about and making picture graphs and bar graphs.  They have also been using the graphs to solve story problem.  This week they will take it a step further.  Students will be creating their own survey question and collecting data from another classroom.  They will then use this data to create graphs and write their own questions about the graphs.

Literacy/Science- This week students will be able to explore a plethora of mammal books.  In addition, they will be recording their schema, wonderings (questions), and new learning about insects.  We will be reading some books and watching some videos to learn about insects.  Students will also continue making observations of the mealworm lifecycle.

Writing- Students will be sharing their final opinion piece and writing some narratives.

Reminders:
Tuesday:  Spring Concert - 6:30 at Pickard Auditorium
Wednesday:  PAC Field Trip and 11:30 Dismissal
Thursday:  CoGAT Test

Here are some pictures from last week.

Volunteers from Kimberly Clark provided a lot of interesting 
science experiments for the 2nd graders to participate in.
Everyone had a blast!




In honor of Read Across America Week, we had some 
mystery readers come and read to our class.  The mystery 
readers were 6th graders from Horace Mann.
