Writing

Writing-Writing-Writing!

Students used 2nd grade high-frequency words to write a paragraph with ME as the main character. Lots of fun!

Compare and Contrast

Students are putting their knowledge about the Triassic and Jurassic time periods to work today. They sorted vocabulary related to these time periods and then wrote compare/contrast paragraphs. Indenting, topic and closing sentences, and quality facts were all things they thought about as they wrote.

RESPONSIBLE!

Students were fired up Thursday to learn that the new pillar we will be focusing on from Character Counts is RESPONSIBILITY! We had a visit from Pat Cowan and a fun assembly. We are ready to prove we are responsible. Students spent the morning writing about ways that they show it in their daily lives. We also watched an Arthur video and looked for ways that Arthur and his friends show they are responsible.

Conferences

Thanks to all the families who attended conferences. I enjoyed sharing your child's work with you. I am so proud of our class. They have achieved so much this year!
