It was so enjoyable to see you all and celebrate the many accomplishments of your children! I think we have a darling class.
In math we are working on money-counting it by adding on and knowing the value of each coin. This is critical information, even though we rarely use cash these days. It still is the foundation for our monetary system!
Here is the background for our new reading unit...
Second Grade Weekly Study Skills
Unit 2, Week 4 (The Bremen Town Musicians)
Below are the skills
and vocabulary we will be working on for the next 5 days. (*Please note: our literacy lessons are based
on 5-day plans that may or may not align with a M-F schedule. In an effort to
teach the entire grade level core, we will send home the “weekly study skills”
on the day that we begin a new 5-day instructional sequence.) You can support your child’s literacy skills
by reviewing, discussing, and practicing the skills and concepts below:
