Reading: We will continue focusing os main idea and details this week. At times we also have to find the main idea of different paragraphs in stories as well. Discuss finding the main idea when reading together.

Writing: This nine weeks will be reviewing narrative, informational, and persuasive genres in our writing. The students will also be working on a writing portfolio to go with them to 3rd grade with all three writing pieces in it. We will be wrapping up our modeling of the three genres, and moving on to independent writing for a grade.

Math: This week will be working on making arrays. An arrangement of objects, pictures, or numbers in columns and rows is called an array. Arrays are useful representations of multiplication concepts. This array has 4 rows and 3 columns. It can also be described as a 4 by 3 array.
