Wednesday in Mrs. Bognetti's Class

DINOSAUR DIORAMAS AND PARAGRAPHS are due TOMORROW! Don't forget to send in the packet of rubrics with your child's projects so we don't have to waste paper and copy new ones!

This morning we practiced using abbreviations of the days of the week, months of the year, people's titles, and measurements. The students have one page of spelling homework. We reread our story Mr. Putter and Tabby Fly the Plane in small groups. They have a scavenger hunt to complete using their books tonight. We completed our DLP and two guided reading groups. The children went to music and gym. This afternoon, we broke the second grade up into vocabulary groups and gave each an opportunity to extend their learning by using flash cards, drawing activities, etc. Then, we gave two math quizzes. One quiz covered even and odd numbers and the other assessed greater than and less than. We just introduced the next chapter, which will be on money. Students are expected to know the coins and their values. If your child does not know them, please work on them at home! There is no math homework for any class. In Social Studies, we read about landforms and started a landform booklet. Students will write definitions and draw pictures of several different landforms. We also completed part of a geography packet. In Science, we talked about endangered animals, completed a worksheet together, and watched a video clip showing examples of endangered animals. There will be a science test sometime next week...more details to follow!
