A Busy Week in Second Grade

We started Math Workshop with our AMSTI curriculum.  The boys and girls explored with pattern blocks and cubes.

 WOOF Words were introduced this week.  The boys and girls had their first vocabulary quiz on Friday.  They did FABULOUS!!  WOOF! 

 Look who was the first COONdog to BLING this year!  Way to go, Cole!!  You were a TOP dog!

 We have spent a lot of time focusing on reading to ourselves.  Everyday we have tried to build our stamina.  We have made it a little over 4 minutes without any disturbances.  Our goal this week is to build to 10 minutes!  Can we do it?
 Friday was our first POPCORN day!  Don't forget to send $.50 on Fridays if your child wants popcorn.
 Now that we have been in 2nd grade for 2 weeks, we took time to compare and contrast first and second graders at Benjamin Davis.  
 The second store ran very smoothly on FRIDAY!  They are loving it!
 I am so impressed by all the students who are saving their money.  

 Decisions, decisions, decisions!

 This picture just melts my heart!  It is too sweet!
 Former Principal, Pam Assman, came to Benjamin Davis on Friday afternoon to teach the second graders sign language.  
 Our IB unit is Express Yourself!  We are focusing on Many, Varied, and Unusual Ways to Communicate.
 The second grade teachers learned a lot, too!

WE HAD A WONDERFUL WEEK!!!
