Dear Parents,
We are getting into the swing of 2nd Grade here in room 127! Last week, Mrs. Fornia began our science unit on Geology. Your child will be learning all about pebbles, sand, and silt. Today we had two huge boxes delivered to our room, full of science supplies. This is going to be a fun unit.
This week we are also working with our Math Envisions curriculum and learning addition strategies. With this comes daily math homework so your child can continue to practice at home and become stronger with their math facts.
Math Homework: Each
day your child will bring home this Math Magazine with math sheets inside. The
Math Magazine is completed and corrected in class. Inside the Math Magazine are
a math Practice sheet and an Enrichment sheet. This will be your child’s math
homework. Some days we may begin the Practice sheet in class. The Enrichment
sheet contains challenge level problems. Please check over their work each
night to ensure success. Math homework does not need to be returned to school
but it should be completed every day. Skills are built upon each other with
each lesson.
We have also been diving into our reading and writing curriculum and getting to knw our students as readers and writers.
Tomorrow, we begin our Social Studies unit on communities.
We are excited to tell you more about our 2nd Grade curriculum and look forward to seeing everyone this THURSDAY, Sept. 20th. Mrs. Frasier will be speaking in the commons at 6:45 and then parents are welcomed into our classroom to learn about our curriculum.
Please bring your calendars with you. You will get a chance to sign up for conferences and for special volunteer opportunities....including a chance to pick a day and talk about your career or special talent/hobby you have.
We truly enjoy your childrend and we thank you for allowing them to be in our hands for this special year of school.
