One more week before Spring Break!  This week we are beginning a unit about measurement, specifically capacity.  Students will also be moving around in their math groups to help them work more closely with students working on the same goals.  Their individual goal writing is coming along really well.  It is wonderful to see such thoughtful second graders make goals about specific skills and work hard each day to get closer to attaining them!  Please take a moment to look through your child's folder to see the feedback they are receiving each week from both me and Jaime in reference to these goals.  We feel that feedback is so important in helping support them in creating and making goals for their individual learning. 
In science we are continuing to learn about rocks, but this week we are starting experiments! Students will be using various tools to test streaking, hardness, and other reactions that rocks can have with certain properties.  As they practice being scientists I expect they will start noticing rocks more and more outside of our classroom.  Feel free to encourage them to bring them to class!  I'll let you know when we have an abundance and can't hold anymore. :)
As always have a great week and I hope you have a lot of fun family time planned for spring break.  My family and I are planning a trip to welcome my new nephew who is due to be born that week, our fingers are crossed that we will be there when he arrives!
