Rolling for 100

This past week, the students learned a math game called "Rolling for 100." This game uses base 10 blocks, place value mats and dice. The students worked in partners to roll the dice, collect that number of ones and trade for tens when they needed to. Their goal was to get to 100! They also got the chance to practice their 10 partners, saying how many more ones they needed until their next ten.

Number Corner

In number corner this month, our class is starting to see a pattern on our calendar with the number 20, and how to make number bonds that are equal to 20. We are also collecting 60 minutes a day on the clock, learning about a.m./p.m. and how the hands on an analog clock move. Lastly, we are exploring odd and even numbers through collecting a square a day and determining if we can split them into two equal groups. Ask your student about what's new on the calendar this week!

Hopes and Dreams

The past couple of weeks, our class has been working on getting to know each other and building our classroom community. We shared our hopes and dreams and are proudly displaying them in our classroom as a reminder to work hard and practice these goals all year. Ask your child what their hope for second grade is and their dream for life!

What a year!

What a wonderful last day we had together! Here is the last group shot of our second grade class. Enjoy the summer!!!
