We have all settled into our routines again today. We revisited our original Hopes and Dreams for second grade and talked about how we are doing as far as achieving them. Our discussion focused on how we are a community and here to help each other achieve the goals/resolutions that we've set for ourselves. Students were so supportive of one another and the goals. (SO proud!) It's great to revisit our goals this time of year and also solidify the structure that is put into place in our room.
In writing today, we learned about the trait of organization. I presented a mixed up story and we took it apart to make it fit back together again. I'm hoping to see more of this in students' writing. Students will not write on 2 sides of the paper when drafting stories so that if they need to cut their stories apart and paste them back together, they can.
In reading, we read a poem and we talked about how to proceed with Write About Reading this week. We are working on retelling, which is a tough skill.
We learned the 5 new word wall words today. Also, we focused more on bar models in math.
