This week in second grade we finished up our fraction unit and moved on to measurement. We learned the importance of standard units of measurement and practiced our estimating skills .
In reading we continued to search for the main idea within a passage and identify ways that authors support the main idea with details.
In writing we continued working through our persuasive letters using lots of reasons and examples to support our ideas!
In social studies we began our study of maps! We've already looked at the globe and atlases. We learned the difference in a compass and a compass rose, made a map of our classroom, and prepared for grid mapping with a fun game of battleship!
