I hope you all had a great summer! I had a busy, exciting summer break traveling over to Europe [Italy, Greece, and France]. The students will be hearing about my travels all year as I share some pictures, experiences, and language with them.
It's been so fantastic starting the year off with a group of second graders that I am familiar with. We have 5 students new to our class, and they fit right in with our group of 'Stupendous Second Graders'!!
Next week we will begin our more formalized instruction. Our Reading will be much like last year - with a focus on fluency, comprehension, and independance. Writing this year will be more of a focus, as we strive to become more independent learners and thinkers.In Math we with expand on much of what was learned in First Grade - with a continued focus on Math Facts! Spelling Tests will not start for another week or so, as will our other Homework.
I'm very happy to welcome Ms. Marcia back to our classroom this year. Ms. Marcia is our foster Grandmother who helps us out in class as needed. She comes every day from 9-2, and is a huge help to us all!
I will post again soon and add some classroom pictures.Please feel free to leave a comment - and become a follower!
