Week 3

Quite the week in 2B.
As many of you know, Jay J fell in PE on Monday and was taken to Cardinal Glennon where they found that he had re-broken his leg. Jay J had surgery on Tuesday afternoon and is at home recovering. We hope he will be able to join us back at school sometime next week. Please pray for Jay J and his family as they go through the healing process one more time. What comfort it is to know that we have God to provide healing and comfort through this time.

We missed Jay J. this week, but the kids stayed busy. They made lots of get well cards for their friend. We also learned about Author's purpose. In writing we focused on writing with the purpose of informing our readers. To do this, the kids interviewed a classmate, wrote a paragraph, and presented them to the class.
