Mrs. Barulich's Weekly Highlights

Yia Sou!
That's the official Greek greeting that we are starting off with each morning. We've had a very busy week. We've reviewed our nouns, verbs, and adjectives as well as our subject and predicate in a sentence. In math, we started illustrating addition problems, telling time to the half hour and working with adding doubles and doubles plus one. In social studies, we just ended our non-fiction story about Yehuda Weinstein's journey to America from Russia. The highlight for the class this week was Mrs. Wendlent bringing in the mallow (caterpillar food) for the caterpillars in Science. Each child was given a magnifying glass to view the feeding up closer. Quite exciting!

Have a safe and wonderful weekend. We hope to meet with both 2A and 2B's room parents next week to map out the school year.

Madeline: My highlight was getting to draw Persephone, I love to eat pasta and cereal and she is the Goddess of the Grain. I also enjoyed feeding the caterpillars in science and drawing guitars in Mrs. Switkes' art class.

Rohan: I loved math, especially when we discussed how three normal twelve inch rulers equal a yard stick and then we all lined up by height in class. Next week, we get to measure each other. I also liked getting to draw Poseidon because I would love to rule the seas and science was a lot of fun.

Oliver: I loved science, the mallow and the caterpillars! I really liked the story of Yehuda, he is very funny. He speaks Yiddish and it's hard for him to say english words. I also love Mrs. Barulich!

Kenna: I finally finished my drawing of Aphrodite. I chose her because love blooms all around her. I love the immigrant story of Yehuda, it's happy and sad and second grade!

Stefan: I love P.E.! Playing Capture the Flag with my friends, drawing the guitars in art and library.

Nathan: I love drawing Zeus. My brother was a very good Zeus when he was in second grade. I also liked when the class lined up by height and the story of Yehuda.

Renee: I loved science and being able to feed the caterpillars. I also liked our stories in Jumping Up and drawing our goddesses.

Ivan: I love kickball in P.E. It is so much fun. I also like greek mythology and our immigrant
studies, especially Yehuda's story.

Aidan: I liked making my "Me" book, working on my paper person and Yehuda's story.

Gabriella: I liked greek mythology, immigration and Mrs. Barulich.

Vicki: I loved working on my "Me" book and my paper person, Weekend News and Mrs. Barulich!

Liam: I loved the story of Yehuda and how he thought the word, "match" was pronounced "metch". I love greek mythology and math!
