Continue Working on Multiplication facts

I have been so impressed with how quickly the kids are learning their multiplication facts.  We have a multiplication rap we have been listening to daily, and the kids are saying the answers quickly now.  Continue to work on those facts at home and over the Summer.  This will help so much in 3rd grade.


Please make note of the dates to the right of our Blog for upcoming events as we near the end of the school year. 


I am so glad so many of you were able to join us on our Lanark Field Trip.  The kids told me that was their favorite one for the entire school year. 


Story this Week: Cowboys
Genre: Narrative Nonfiction
Phonics: Suffixes -ness, -less
Voc. Strategy: Word Structure
Comp. Skill: Cause and Effect
Comp. Strategy: Graphic Organizer
Grammar: commas in compound sentences


In Math we are continuing with Geometric Shapes.


In Science we are anxiously awaiting the progress of our chrysalis EVERY SINGLE DAY! We are so excited about this process, we can hardly stand it! If your child brought home the cup that contained several different scientific things that were part of the metamorphosis, I apologize.  Once we moved each chrysalis to the butterfly nets, some of them couldn't part with their first habitat. :)


Please email me with any questions you may have.  I am always available if you would like to sit down and have a conference concerning your child. 


Have a SUPER week!
