Welcome to 2nd Grade

Kite Building

Easter Egg Hunt!

MARCHing into our learning


"Second grade is steaming right along with our learning! In math, we just finished talking about place value and now are working on our geometry unit. We introduced the topic by naming some shapes and then trying to build them with marshmallows and toothpicks. Later in this unit, we will also be discussing 3-D shapes, angels, and fractions!


In Reading and Writing, we are taking some time to look at folktales and working on reading/writing our own poetry. The students are doing a phenomenal job of coming up with rhyming poems and creating/speaking the rhythm in the poems. Amazing work everyone!"

LEARNING THE ROSARY AND WORKING ON GRAMMAR

The second grade got the opportunity to learn more about our faith by exploring the Rosary. We talked about why we pray the Rosary and reviewed some of the prayers. We ended our conversation by making a visual guide to help us when we pray the Rosary and by praying a decade of the Rosary together.


We also got to be a little more "hands on" with our grammar lesson! We played a game called "Scoot"-social distance style. We tried to solve the fill in the blank task cards while rotating in the hallway and using our crayons. It was the first time Mrs. Hunker heard her class ask for more time for grammar!

FUn with Friction!!

Enrichment Opportunities

Xtramath: This is an app you can download  for free on your tablet, or click the link below then click sign in,  clicking on “Student”, typing my email (ellen.hunker@sjs-amherst.org),  typing their name, and their 4 digit pin. If you need your child’s 4  digit pin, please email me and I will send it to you. This app is GREAT  for practice with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division  facts.

Epic

You can access books on Epic to read by going to getepic.com, selecting me as their teacher, and entering our class code. If you need this code again, please let me know.

Prodigy

A LOT of students have been telling me  about Prodigy, and after playing for a few minutes, it seems really  cool! I don’t have a teacher account set up (yet), but if/when I do I  will let you know! You can still sign up without me having an account to  play at home. This is a GREAT math game.

In-Class Resources

Below you will find some photos or  information that we are using in class this week. I am hopeful that this  will be beneficial for both my in-class and distance learners.
