In Math, we will be finishing chapter 6 with some cooperative addition and subtraction activities. Students will be engaged in interactive activities to practice computation skills using number cubes, spinners and linking cubes. By Thursday, we will be starting chapter 7 which is 2-D Geometry.
In Science, the grade 2 students will closely examine how each type of simple machine allows humans to move objects with less force.
