Happy Monday Everyone!
This week we have started our unit on Native American Cultures. We will be reviewing different reading skills each day. In language we are learning about adjectives. Our spelling words this week have the soft c and g sounds. We will have a spelling test on Friday. In math we are learning how to take the data from a survey and place it on a graph as well as adding and subtracting within 100.
In your child's take home folder is information about the second grade reading challenge. To help encourage your child to read, we would like each child to read for 20 minutes per day for 5 days out of the week. That would be 100 minutes at the end of the week. This challenge will take place over the next 5 weeks. If you child participates, they will have read for 500 minutes!!! As a celebration of this accomplishment, we will have a donut party the morning of Monday, December 18th before school. Parents must sign off on the reading log that students actually did the reading. Happy Reading!
I hope you have a wonderful week!

Dear Parents,
Tomorrow is the big day! Everyone needs to wear their green field trip shirts and bring their lunch (except for the four students that signed up to get a sack lunch from the cafeteria). We will eat lunch before we leave at 10:30. We will have snack after we return to school.
Friday is Thanksgiving lunch here at ILE. We will be eating earlier than normal, 11:20, and our we are sitting at table 6 in the gym. We hope you can join us.
The book fair is this week! We will go shopping during our library time on Thursday. You can send in money with your child to shop then. You can also take your child to the book fair after lunch on Friday. Only the students with a parent/adult will be going to the book fair after lunch on Friday. Tuesday afternoon is family night and the book fair will be open from 4:00-6:00.
There will be no spelling words this week.
We will be practicing our reading skills, main idea/details and text features, using Scholastic News this week. We are learning about the prefixes dis- and un in language. In phonics we are practicing the hard and soft c and g sounds.
We continue to practice solving problems using the open number line in math.
I hope you have a wonderful week!
