I am very excited for our upcoming week of school! We will be starting our math and ELA curriculum. Along with this, we will be working on our diagnostics for the start of the year! This will help give me feedback to see exactly where your student is currently at in their learning. The diagnostics will also show us how much they grow this school year!

What will we be working on this week?

Math: We will be starting our first math unit this week. We will be reviewing 2nd grade materials including: writing three-digit numbers in word form and expanded form, comparing three-digit numbers, and adding three-digit numbers. This will give me an idea of what your child knows before we jump into 3rd grade standards. We will also be taking our I-Ready Math Diagnostics over the course of the week.

ELA: This week we will be working on Week 1 in our Wonders program. Below is an outline of what we are learning in class. Out of the listed skills and strategies we’ll focus on asking and answering questions about text features and identifying the main idea! Along with this, we will be working on the I-Ready ELA Diagnostic over this week.

Information to Note: The office is still talking class donations if you have not had a chance to do this! I am also always taking donations of small toys, stickers, etc. for the class store that we will have each semester!

Upcoming: We have our first full day on Monday, so school will get out at 3:10! Thursday we have a short day (school gets out at 1:10) and Friday we will not have school!
