This week in 2nd grade we will have our first math test, start the first story in our new reading series, and have our first spelling test!  We will be busy this week.

Back to School night for 2nd grade is Tuesday, August 20th from 6:30-7:30.  I have a lot to share with you.  I hope you can make it!

Have a wonderful week,

Mrs. Kane

Hello Parents!

We are off t0 another great start this week.  Everyone is starting to get settled in to our daily routines.

This week in math we will continue with understanding addition and subtraction.  You will see the worksheets that we have been working on come home in their Wednesday folders.  You can help your student by having them practice math facts, both adding and subtracting to 20.  We will wrap up this topic and be looking at our first test early next week. 

During reading, we are learning how to "Read to Self" and building our stamina so that we are able to read for 20 minutes at a time.  That may not seem like a lot, but for a 2nd grader that is huge!  The more they read, the better reader they will become.

In language we are focusing on writing complete sentences and in spelling we are working on phonemic awareness strategies.

Please remember that the class book project is due on Friday, but your student can turn it in earlier if they finish.

Next week we will begin our new reading series.  I am very excited!

I hope everyone has a great week.

Mrs. Kane
