This Wednesday is walking Wednesday. Children are encouraged to walk or carpool to school. The class with the highest percentage of walkers get a super cool trophy. My class didn't win the trophy once last year BOO HOO. I hope we do this year.
We have so many things going on in class. We've been reading lots of stories. We are currently reading a book titled Second Grade Rules. Freddy made a new friend and they plan on trick or treating together. They even thought of cool costumes. I wonder what will happen next?
We are also listening to a Junie B Jones story on CD. Her books are a bit tricky to read because Junie uses baby talk but they are super fun to listen to. I love Junie's voice. She is currently hiding so she doesn't have to get on the stupid, smelly bus.
We've been learning and reading about Christopher Columbus too. Remember, no school on Monday. I'm not sure if I'll ever use my pull down map again. Ask your child to tell that story. It's funny.
We finished up our science unit on matter. We did a few experiments along with it. Today we placed rocks in water and watched the water rise. It did this because each form of matter takes up space. We also had a lot of fun last week trying to see which group could melt an ice cube faster.
By now we should be experts on using proper punctuation at the end of sentences. This week we will be writing about a friend. Let's hope the students punctuate properly.
