Reading
This week we will focus on retelling as we read 2 selections about ants. Two Bad Ants is a fiction story about two ants who decide to leave the safety of their home and explore a kitchen. Ant is a non fiction story about the life cycle, habitats, and different types of ants. We'll compare and contrast the two selections and work on the reading strategy of visualization.
Math - We will be working on 3 digit subtraction this week. We will also be adding and subtracting money as well as working on problem solving skills.
Positive Paw Winner - Sara
Estimation Jar Winner - Alyssa
Field Trip - The 2nd graders are taking a field trip on Wed. May 11 to the DuPage Children's Museum in Naperville. We'll be exploring the museum as well as learning about GeoSpace in the learning lab. A fee of $5 is required along with the permission slip, which will come home on Monday, April 25. Our PTO has generously donated money to help pay for a portion of the fee for the trip.
