Good Tuesday Morning

Hola Terrific 2nd grade artists,

Today is Tuesday, March 24, 2020.  I was so happy to see the pictures of you all yesterday receiving your work packets. I hope you work hard on the work I sent to you.  Wow, we have about 5 inches of snow at my house.  I bet you all have snow too.  I hope you all can get outside for a brain break today and enjoy the Spring snow.  Usually on Tuesday we go to Art with Ms. Suzie.  I hope you can find some time today to do some art.  

Make this day the best it can be!

Peace,
Mrs. Bauman

Spring is in the air🌷

Hello 2nd graders and families,

Today is Friday, March 20, 2020.  It is the first day of Spring!
Usually on Fridays we take a longer brain break, walking around the track.  I hope you have been enjoying a just right book.  We have been learning about money during number corner.  Do you have a collection of quarters at your home?  Maybe you could see how many dollars in quarters you have? 
I think about you all and hope you are all doing well.  I hope you and your families have a wonderful weekend.  

Remember our Core Value:

Be Kind
Be Safe
Do my best

Peace,
Mrs. Bauman

Math: Estimating 1000

What is happening in 2nd grade?

Dear Families,

Here are some updates about what we are doing in 2nd grade!

On Friday, we finished our Measuring Unit in math.  On Monday we are starting Unit 5: Place Value to One Thousand.  A sheet has been placed in each mailbox for your children take home so you all can read about our new unit.

In writing we are continuing to learn about writing Persuasive Essays.  So far, we have took surveys, wrote a persuasive letter to Mr. Trifilio, wrote about our favorite books and much more. We are also learning about persuasive words so that we convince others that our opinion is correct.

In social studies we continue our work learning about the Everglades.  We are focusing on this important ecosystem and how both plants and animals have adapted to live in this habitat.

Finally, on Friday a sign up sheet for Spring Parent/Teacher Conferences went home in your children's mail.  Make sure to fill that sheet out and have your children bring it back to school and hand in that sheet.  It is on bright PINK paper!

Thank you for all your support and have a spectacular Sunday!

Black History Month

Our class learned about Raven Wilkinson, the first African American woman to dance in a major ballet company. We learned she was brave, inspirational and kind.
