Please check your child's red folder for important information about our Spelling Bee! We will conduct a class spelling bee the week of November 26th. The winner and first runner-up will compete in the school-wide spelling bee.
Next Week in 2B...
Poetry: We will recite Merry Autumn Days in class next week. Please help your child practice at home this weekend.
Literature: We will read Chapters 5 & 6 of The Boxcar Children and have a nice discussion about what treasure means to us. We are also working on reading the scripts from each chapter which has been a lot fun! The kids love being actors :-).
Writing: Students are practicing how to answer questions in a complete sentence, restating the question in their answer. We will read and narrate (with complete sentences) an excerpt from The Borrowers by Mary Norton.
Grammar: Be sure to ask your child about our SKILL CHECK! "Period, statement, declarative sentence" and "Go back to the verb - divide - the complete subject from the complete predicate" What does it mean? - we hope they can share their new grammar knowledge with you. Next week we will continue classifying sentences by using our Question and Answer Flow and we will review singular and plural nouns. We will learn how to revise our builder sentences, too.
Spalding Words:
Monday: paid, laid, said, enter, railroad, unable, ticket, account, driven, real
Tuesday: recover, mountain, speak, past, might, contract, deal, almost, all, brought, bring
Wednesday: less, event, off, of, true, truth, took, again, inform

Math: We are finishing up our weight unit by introducing pounds and ounces! If you have measuring cups at home, or maybe bread, that is a great way to make a connection at home with your child! Our Cumulative Test will take place on Thursday, we will be reviewing Units 1-4 prior, so please look for a similar study guide Wednesday night!
History: Next week, we are wrapping up our unit on Ancient India. Please look for the study guide coming home on Wednesday. The test will be on Friday. Have your child tell you about how Siddhartha became Buddha using the words: first, next, then, and last.
Science: The Water Cycle is finishing up with a test on Tuesday. Be sure to help your child study for it over the weekend. Our next unit will begin on Thursday with and introduction to creepy, crawly insects!
