December flew by in a flurry! Here's a bit of info to bring you up to speed in 2nd grade...
We are in the middle of Module 4-working on addition and subtraction strategies. The more fluent your child is with their math facts, the easier it is do add and subtract the larger numbers. We will be focusing on more strategies that help us become more efficient with our math.
In January we will be on week 3 for Unit 3 in ELA, keeping right on track with sight words and skills. In Unit 3 we are focusing on long vowel sounds as well as cause and effect, drawing conclusions, fact and opinion, making judgments, main idea, and summarizing.
In January we'll be picking back up with Science and starting "How Can We Stop Soil from Washing Away?" This is a fun science unit with lots of hands on exploring!
You should have received a note reminding you that the "High Five" program will be starting again January 3rd. For four Wednesday's in January we will have presentations to discuss body/stranger awareness.
Other classroom tidbits:
Hungry bellies would appreciate if you could send in a box or bag of a snack for our "Emergency Snack Bin!"
