Friday Fun!

Today was a busy day!  We were really trying to pack it all in before October slipped away!

In Literacy we reviewed story elements by reading the book The Plot Chickens.  We retold the story Hennrietta, the chicken, wrote.  See if your child can tell you the story.  

We wrote a paragraph about The Great Lakes in our Symbol and Landmarks book.  We had to do our best to draw a picture of The Great Lakes.  

While we had no formal math lesson, we did make calendar pieces for November.  We have to make the pieces and then make a pattern.  We will be exchanging our pieces with another Second grade class.

Then, we built and flew parachutes as a part of our Science unit all about Air and Weather.  We had to follow multistep directions to build the parachute and then be very careful as we flew them.  It was so much fun!

At the end of the day we had a fun directed drawing activity!  Ask your child what they made!

Happy Weekend!
