Greetings Families:
We have been very busy , as usual, in 2nd Grade! This week we are still working on building stamina for our "Daily 5". If your child hasn't talked about daily 5 yet, please ask them! The students have been hard at work reading and writing for longer and longer periods of time! We have learned about "I Pick" books that are just right and generated ideas for writing. We have completed the inventory unit in Language arts and are beginning our first story this week into next. The first Spelling and Reading tests will be NEXT Friday, Sept. 26th.
In Math we have started our Rocket Math program that will lead to mastery of facts and have been working on the review unit in Everyday Math. Please practice the facts with your child, as well as counting change (money). THANKS!
In Science we have finished the first chapter and will have a test this Friday, Sept. 19th. Your child should bring their book home each day this week. Please go over the vocabulary in each lesson of Chapter 1 Ready, Set, Science! Look for a review sheet to come home on Thursday.
THANK YOU so much for participating in "Small Change for a Big Change" hurricane victims relief for the Red Cross. We will continue to collect until the end of September.
Please know that if you ever have a question you can just ask! I am here to help your child become the best he/she can be in 2nd grade!
Take care!
Mrs. Scull
