Hi Grade Two Families!
This week, we wrapped up part one of our pattern unit by practicing identifying the core and attributes of our patterns. On Class Dojo, you will see some patterns we made outside with at least 2 different attributes. Please check it out!
The children also made their own prayer books. These books are in their agenda pocket to keep at home. We will be going over what these prayers mean and why they are important over the next couple of weeks, as well as practicing them. Please pray these prayers with your child. You can focus on a prayer at a time or do all of them at the same time. The goal is to be able to recite these prayers by heart, or get to know them and their meaning even better.
We also began our Open Parachute lessons this week. The class did a wonderful job discussing what mental health is and why it’s important to talk about our changing emotions. Please check your email for a link to the parent resources for this program so that you can continue the learning process with your child at home. I’m looking forward to working with you in helping your children build the skills they need to navigate their mental health!
