Week 2- Sept. 9th- 13th
Peek of the Week for Sept. 9th - 13th
Hello second grade families! We made it through our first week of school! We spent the week getting to know one another, building community in our classrooms. We learned routines and expectations for this school year.
Math: This week we will begin Unit 1 reviewing adding and subtracting using number lines, tally marks, coin values and values of coin combinations, and using patterns to help solve math problems.
Homework: Your student will have math homework each night to complete and return to school the next day.
Language Arts: This week we will begin Unit 1 and learn about the different habitats around the world and how living things get what they need to survive. This week’s phonics skills focus on short vowel sounds, a, e, i, o, u and blends at the beginning of a word.
Spelling: This week’s words are- graph, stand, chest, fetch, flip, this, cloth, shop, just, budge. Please practice these words with your student. The spelling test will be at the end of the week.
Homework: Please have your student read for at least 20 minutes every night.
Social Studies: We begin Chapter 1 about Families Today and in the Past. We will learn how does life change throughout history. We will learn about family, different kinds of families, and life then and now.
Other Reminders: Please remember to send a healthy snack to school with your student every day.
