What's an icon?

Today we had our first skill lesson in lab. We are learning about using icons in Microsoft Word. We have to learn all the parts of this program so we can use the program to its fullest potential. If you have a computer at home, play around with the icons on Microsoft Word and find out what they all mean! Today, we also saved a document in our own personal folder. We will use our jump drive soon!

We took our word wall AND word study test today. Tomorrow, we will get our new word study list. We will do this in small groups. We will study the list this week AND next, since it is a shorter week next week. We also are working together on our reading selection test. Remember, there is no school on Monday and early dismissal next Wednesday.

In writing, we are studying what makes a paragraph. Today, we started to create a paragraph about art. We are beginning to understand that a paragraph needs a main idea sentence and some detail sentences about ONE topic!

Wednesday night is our second grade PE Night. Our class's session is in the gym from 6-7 so bring the family and dress for some activity!! See you then!!
