Skippyjon and Student

Our class during R-time.  R-time is a program Galloway as a
school follows.  It teaches young children respect and manners.

We are exciting about our second grade t-shirts. I will send home a note soon if you have not sent in the money.  I can't wait to see my class in their shirts for all of our special events.

Mrs. Mingle wanted to send out a reminder that breakfast is served 7:15 -7:45.  Any student coming in after that time won't be able to eat.  Our cafeteria staff have to start making our lunches!

Our College Information for this week:

In the United States, there is little difference between the terms “college” and “university”.  However, the term “college” in other countries, such as Canada, refers to a junior college or trade college, whereas a “university” is larger, more research focused, and usually contains multiple colleges.

Here is what we are learning:

Reading:  Monitoring Comprehension.  I also still leveling the students so I can better teach your child in the areas needed.

Math:  Subtraction strategies

English:  Writing and nouns, both proper and common

Spelling: One and two syllable CVCe words with blends and digraphs

Word List:  cupcake, bedtime, baseline, swipe, state, shake, smile, grape, shade, grade, close, chose

Science:  Air

Social Studies:  Freedom and symbols of the United States

PLEASE JOIN THE PTA!!  We could win a popcorn party!  I'm thinking of planning something special for all who join in our class...
