Today in Room 11

• Walk to read started today. Students have a change of scene by attending small group, practice reading sessions every day. They have lots of chances to read aloud at their own level.
• Enrichment started today, too. Some students recieved extra reading help, others learned about healthy eating, a third group practiced penmanship skills, and a fourth group learned about the flag. The second grade teachers have planned special rotating classes to teach interesting and needed subjects in a concentrated format that sometimes gets glossed over in our day-to-day curriculum.
• We added three addends in math class. Changing the positions of addends does not affect the sum.
• After over a week of working on writing about our new Smart Board system in our classroom, students drew their own diagrams of the set up.
• Picture day tomorrow!
