Advent:
Our second grade class is having a lovely time gathering around the CCS Advent Calendar each day. It is exciting to talk about our great need for a Savior. We can see how each story on the calendar points to a God that fulfills promises and provides for his children.
We will begin Christmas activities and crafts this week!
Spelling:
Spelling packets will go home tomorrow and we will have tests on Friday morning.
Vocabulary:
Keep up the good work on the vocabulary words! The children love to memorize and recite the definitions and are quizzing each other during free time in class. I love it!
Grammar:
We are discussing contractions this week. It will reinforce your child's learning to look for contractions in everyday surroundings.
Mr. Popper's Penguins:
We love this book! Right now we are sequencing events from the first half of the book and next week we will begin discussing characterization. We will have a final project over the book after Christmas.
