Dear Parents –
We had another busy week in grade 2, and next week will be short but
full. Our class has had multiple birthdays and has really enjoyed
learning all about making healthy choices with exercise and healthy eating.

Reader’s Workshop
We’ve been busy becoming experts on a topic by reading across books.
Students have looked at information in multiple texts and put them
together to learn about big ideas authors are trying to teach on their
topic. We will continue to focus on comparing and contrasting information
that is similar and different across books on a similar topic. Also, how to
ask and answer questions and share facts with each other to show that
we are experts.

Writer’s Workshop
Our writers continue to polish up their writing making it more readable for their audience. They are still working on elaborating
all they know with key words, facts and details and organize
chapters with good leads and wrap ups. They are excited to get
to share them with you soon.
Math Workshop
Mathematicians have been learning about partitioning shapes equally and
exploring equal shares. They are becoming experts on fractions and how to
describe them using thirds, halves and fourths. We will be finishing up our
fractions and geometry unit with our post assessment on content and
vocabulary this week.

We are now learning about healthy eating and having balanced meals. We
explored different food pyramids around the world, studied food labels,
learned about calories and different nutrients each food group provides.
