2nd Grade Weekly Newsletter: May 4-8
Dear parents,
This week, the students learned about fractured fairy tales and began brainstorming ideas to write their own fractured fairy tales next week.   A fractured fairy tale is a story that uses a familiar fairy tale but changes the characters, settings, plots, or points of view. The students also reviewed parts of a friendly letter and will begin writing one next week to author of the Magic Treehouse series, Mary Pope Osborne.  During Easy Grammar, the students learned the various rules for making plural nouns.   In US Math, the students reviewed word problems counting money as well as telling time to the nearest five minutes. 
                I was so proud of all of the students and their hard work and preparation for their class play, Little Red Riding Hood. They did such an amazing job today!   I also wanted to give a heartfelt thank you for all of the beautiful flowers and thoughtful presents and cards I received for teacher appreciation week.  I appreciate teaching your children every day.  Finally, I would like to wish you all a happy Mother’s Day!  Thank you for your support and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely,

Miss Miller
