2nd Grade January 11 - 15, 2015

This week we will do word work with the "schwa" sound found in words.  The spelling words are
against, around, away, apart, among, across, between, behind, beside, below, above, before, across, between, behind, beside, below, above, and before.  Some of these words are also positional words.  Remember to practice your spelling words every night.  We will have a trial test on Wednesday.

We will also understand and form contractions with pronouns as well read and understand words that begin with the prefix "un."

For study and research skills we will understand and  use a Venn Diagram.

In Superkids, we continue to find out what will happen to Golly now that Gert and Gus have retired and are moving to an apartment.  Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed in the building.  The Superkids are trying to find a home for their buddy!

We are reading Chapter 2 in Little House in the Big Woods - we will learn about life in winter for  the Ingalls family.

In  History we continue to learn about the Early New Kingdom in Egypt and work on the lapbook.  In Bible, we learn about the big sin David committed that resulted in the death of Uriah, his warrior.
