The second graders are reading fiction stories about insects.  We are naming characteristics that the characters have.  We are also discussing main ideas of chapters.  

We will start the third chapter in religion this week.

In writing, we are picturing stories in our minds and then writing about them.  We have discussed telling about the "w" words, like who, what, where, when, and why to add detail in their writing.

We have learned about three different communities.  Ask your second grader what they are.  

More later ...
