This Week in Second Grade


Fall Hike

We had a great afternoon for our hike. Thanks to all the parents who were able to come and hike with us!




We are loving Fasttmath!

The kids are doing one lesson of FM most mornings when they arrive. They may then do another lesson at home if they wish. Fasttmath only allows children to do a maximum of two lessons a day. 



Math
This week in math we played Make Ten and Tens Go Fish. Ask your child how to play each game and what each game is helping us learn and get better at.

What needs to be added to 8 to make a 10?

Science
In Science we have been learning about Matter.  We learned that everything is made of matter and matter can be solid, liquid, or gas.   We have been looking at the properties of solids.  We sorted solids by color, shape, stack, roll or both. 
We are keeping track of the properties of solids so that we can compare them to the properties of liquids.
This is what we have discovered so far:






Can you figure out how these solids were grouped?
