Monday in Mrs. Bognetti's Class

This morning we wrote in our journals and shared them. We are working on our presentation skills. We try to make sure our voice is loud enough to hear and we try to make eye contact with our audience. This is very difficult to do in the beginning of second grade. Then, we learned about words with -ear sounding like -er. We introduced the spelling words, put word wall words on the wall, and completed a workbook page. Then, we completed two sentences of DLP, talked about plural nouns and narrative paragraphs. We went to art class. This afternoon we reviewed estimating in math class. Then, we took a test on place value. We are hoping that this test proves to be better than the last! At the end of the day, we finished Lesson 5 in Social Studies and reviewed for our test tomorrow. We did a rural/urban/suburban sort. This was just a review and does not need to be sent back to school. Coming home with your student is their baggie of vocabulary cards, a poster we made in class, and the textbook. Please review Unit 1 tonight! We also have a vocabulary crossword that will help us review that should be finished for homework tonight!
