We will begin our
new unit Tuesday- have a great Labor Day weekend!
Second Grade Weekly Study Skills
Unit 1, Week 2 (Exploring Space with an Astronaut)
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
