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!
