2nd grade packed a lot into our shortened week!  We studied the sounds ai and ay and how to spell with each.  Acorns came on a rainy day!  We read storybooks with problems and solutions to apply them to spooky or fall-related stories each kiddo is writing.  Nouns and verbs are still the focus of grammar.  The students were very excited to start something brand new they’d never seen before in math: expanded form.  While we’re talking about place value, it’s important to know how the value of a digit changes depending on its place and what that really looks like.  We also kept studying a little about storms looking at tornados this week.  We’re hoping to visit with a real meteorologist soon!  Keep an eye out for details!  

Have a fantastic weekend!
