Week of May 7th

We had an excellent time visiting Ames Elementary and hearing the famous storyteller, Bobby Norfolk, last Friday. 
Some of us even got to help... 



We also had another Mystery Reader visit our room.
I hope you heard all about it...

This week is a BIG week for our class. We'll be busy bees getting ready for chapel and the Author Celebration. Thanks for remembering to RSVP. 

CHRISTIAN CHARACTER FORMATION PROJECT 
This week we will read more about Paul’s journey as we read from Acts 17:19-15 and learn about the Bereans. We’ll revisit the virtue INTEGRITY, which we define as God’s power for you to be true to Him and yourself. As we study this passage, we’ll ask ourselves this “Big Question” – How can you recognize and stay true to God’s message?

PHONICS and SPELLING
This week's spelling will be different. We will pretest on the second grade "Dolch Sight Word" list and students will be tested on words from that list - OR words from their personal lists.

READING 
"Benchmark Test" and reviewing "Good Reading Habits" are our goals for the next few weeks. Please encourage your second grader to finish the year strong!

WRITING
Your kiddos are working diligently to prepare for the Author Celebration on Wednesday! They can't wait to share all of their hard work with you.
