 Mrs. Farina’s 2nd Grade!

 

November 17-21

  

 WOW – Encouragement (n) support/inspiration

 

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. ~ Aesop's Fables

 

Second grade News

º                   This week is the Chinese Auction.  Tickets will be sold 5/$1.00.  Proceeds will help Providence Connections and other disadvantages families in our area.

º                   Our Thanksgiving luncheon is this Thursday, November 20th  at 12:00.

º                   Mass will be back to the regular time this week!

º                   Please have your child wear a coat each day.  They go out to recess before noon and it is often very chilly at that time!

 

Language Arts

 

We have sent home information about our November/December book report. Please help your child choose a book that challenges, without discouraging him/her! 

In spelling we will look at words that have the long”a” sound. This month we will be reading about neighborhoods and communities.  The children write daily in their journals.

Please have your child hand in their reading chart on Monday; it’s great to already be able to see their improvement! 

 

·        Please send in a healthy snack for your child each day if he or she has me for Language Arts!

* Check out the new Spelling City website.  Look under “A Trip to the Firehouse.” It is a fun way to study our weekly spelling list!

* I have added our high-frequency, language arts words to my list of flashcards on this website. We are now moving on to the second list; however it can never hurt to practice them all!

 

 

Math

We are finishing the chapter on patterns, and will be beginning geometry. The children are still encouraged to practice their addition and subtraction math facts.

 

 Religion

We will continue our discussion of the church year.

  

Social Studies

We will continue to discuss the pilgrims and Native Americans.
