Musical  Our 2nd grade musical will be held in the Lakeview gym on Thursday, November 20.  Ms. Wyse is asking each student to bring a small flashlight to school to be used for the concert.  I will store them in our room and they will be returned after the concert.  

Math  We finished the week with a topic test on subtraction strategies.  Our next topic will focus on Place value to 100.  We'll start by modeling tens and ones, then look for different ways to read and write the same number.  We'll also use symbols to compare numbers ( <, >, and = ).  

Reading  This week we will read Owen and Mzee.  It is a story about 2 animals that formed a bridge of friendship, that also helped them live happier lives. Students will learn to look for information to determine the author's purpose. We'll discus context clues and different strategies to find the meaning of unknown words in a text.  

Grammar lessons will focus on plural nouns this week.
