2nd Grade

The third quarter is off to a good start

and we are increasing our effort to learn

everything we need to learn. We have been

working on measurement, both US customary

and metric, and on using strategies to help

solve word problems. In English, we all have

been working with all parts of sentences and

putting them together to make good

paragraphs. In reading we all are using the

selections to make comparison. We are using

Venn Diagrams to help us with this. We are

also reading different versions of the same

story to use to compare and contrast. Please

teams are having to play some big schools at the

boys and girls teams have 6th, 7th and 8th

graders. Thunderbolt in Lake Havasu has 1200

kids in 7th and 8th grade. Le Pera has 46. It is fun

and challenging to try and pull off a big upset like

that. It had been enjoyable to be at practice and

watch players improve. In junior high social

studies we have now moved on to the executive

branch of government. We are studying what

qualifications you need to be President, what are

the powers and jobs that a President has and who
