Happy Monday!


This week we are reading Diary of a Spider and the skill we
are working on is cause and effect and summarizing.  Our spelling
words have the short o, u, and e sounds.  In Language we are
learning about proper nouns and writing narratives.  We continue
to work on adding and subtracting numbers to 20 and recognizing
odd and even numbers.  In Social Studies, we continue to
learn about maps and globes.  Has your child sang the "Continents
and Oceans" song for you yet? 


Homework this week:
Monday:  Math, Read for 15 minutes and write 3 sentences
Tuesday: Read and write sentences
Wednesday:  Sign Wed. folder, read for 15 minutes, and Math
if not completed in class
Thursday: Read Diary of a Spider and write 3 sentences, study
spelling words
Friday:  math if not completed in class


PTO is ordering t-shirts for the students again this year
for the Warrior Walk. Please email me with your students
size by Wednesday.  Warrior Walk will be on Friday, Sept. 30th,
so mark your calendars!


Have a wonderful week!

Hello Everyone!


I hope you are having a wonderful week. Second grade is just humming
along!


Picture day is tomorrow.  Make sure your child brings their smile .


If you send an email or message via Dojo about a change in how
your child will go home, I will respond to let you know I got it.
If you do not hear from me, please assume I do not know and
call the office.


This week we continue to learn procedures and how to be a second
grader.  We will begin our reading curriculum next week.  Therefore
there will be a spelling pre-test on Monday to determine what list
your child will study.  As a reminder, if your child misses 0-2 words
on the pre-test they are given a different list to study.  Spelling
tests this year will consist of 5 dictation sentences where I am looking
for the spelling word to be spelled correctly, capital letter at the
beginning, and punctuation at the end.


We will have math homework Wednesday and Friday this week.  We will
begin the homework in class.  If your child doesn't finish, they will
bring the remainder home to complete.  Friday's homework has a game
and a worksheet to go with it.  If they complete the worksheet in class
they will still bring the game home to play.


Have a wonderful week!

Happy Monday Everyone!


We have had an amazing day today!  We have tried new seats and
enjoyed getting to know each other.  Your child will bring home their
take home folder everyday. You can't miss it.  It is bright orange and yellow.
Please help your child get in the habit of checking the folder every
day to see if they have work to complete, have something signed, or
any communication between the school and home. 


I will send a weekly email every Monday to let you know what is
happening for the week.  This is where I will list any homework or
tests that we have for the week. There will be neither this week!


Have a wonderful week!
