Singing, adding, subtracting, oh my!

We are busy busy here in 2nd grade at St. James. Spring Musical is coming and we have been hard at work practicing every Wednesday. The students are anticipating the big performance. An email regarding ticket information has been sent to all parents of musical performers. Be sure to check out your ticket options.

Our class has also been hard at work water-color painting individual works of art to be used in a conglomerate framed art piece to be used in the auction fundraiser. I promise you wont want to miss the auction! There are many wonderful items up for grabs from all grade levels! Our class has also entered a framed class photograph that showcases each 2nd grade students personality. Just think: “class photo, but with 2nd grade style”.

2nd graders have just completed Module 5 of Eureka Math with flying colors. We will begin the foundations of multiplication and division soon. There is much excitement about learning to multiply and divide. We have started writing personal letters to grandparents and will also begin a new science study on plant and animal characteristics. Today, the 7th and 8th grade students visited our classroom to play a math game they created for the 2nd grade students based on what we have learned in the last module. There was a lot of competition between the groups and everyone was an incredible sportsman. Thank you to the 7th and 8th grade for making our Fun Friday F.U.N.!!
