Math in Class: We are learning how to solve 2-step word problems. Students need to understand which operation to use and then solve the problem. Students struggle with word problems, so any extra help at home is appreciated. Please see the family letter below.

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 decodables each Friday in their green folders. These stories can be read and returned for class money. 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 student’s comprehension; this is key to meeting the end of the year benchmark goals for 2nd grade.
