Happy New Year!

I had a wonderful break and I hop you did too!  But, I am ready to get back to my routine!

This week we are reading a wonderful story, Akiak, about a dog that runs the Iditarod Dog Sled Race.  We will be looking at facts and opinions and learning about possessive nouns.  We will not have a spelling test this week, but will begin again next week.  

In our new unit in math we will be looking at place value to one thousand.  The unit overview will come home in Wednesday folders.  Please take a look at it to see what your child will be learning.  You may want to hold on to this so that you can help your child if they have questions while they are at home.

This Friday is our next Focus Friday.  We will be learning about commitment.  Please help your child remember to wear green on Friday!

Report cards will come home in Wednesday folders this week.

Looking ahead, the second grade performance will be Thursday, January 17th.  Your child should be in the gym by 6:45.

Have a wonderful week!
