Reading Passages (optional, but highly encouraged!!) 

**Please read with your child. Make it enjoyable and fun. You can even read to them and then ask them questions!! 20 minutes a day is a great goal.  Your child should be bringing home 2 decodable story pages each week in addition to their on level daily passage pages. These stories can be read and returned for class money with a parent signature. If they read them 3 times out loud with you, please sign it and have them bring it back. It is so important to read every day and ask fact finding questions from the story to develop your students comprehension; this is key to meeting the end of the year benchmark goals for 2nd grade.
