Wednesday

Good Afternoon,
This week students have been exploring apps on I-pads. Today some of them took their first test on the ipads, while the others were at Atrium. The others will take the test on Monday. Unfortunately, there has been some internet issues that deleted some of their apps. We are working on this so we can the most use out of them. 
In language, the new story is about animal homes. We reviewed vocabulary and are working on using graphics and pictures as a strategy for figuring out words. Students are also working on blends at the end of words. 
In math, students began regrouping in subtraction. They have been using base ten blocks and whiteboards to work problems. They will transition to paper tomorrow. However, they can continue to use base ten blocks.
In social studies, we finished up the unit on communities and will begin a science unit on Matter.

The 2nd grade will be leaders for Courtyard prayers and Mass the week of October 2-7. 

Please remember to complete the SLE evaluation for your child. The link is

I have also attached the Homeroom Parent Welcome letter.

Happy Wednesday!
