Reading in Class:
Math in Class: We are still learning different strategies to add and subtract 2-digit numbers. We will be working on this until fall break. Please consider practicing these strategies at home. They can be difficult for 2nd graders. To get a 4 students need to know 2 strategies, and a 3 is using 1 strategy correctly.

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. 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.
DECODABLE STORIES: Your child should be bringing home stories each Friday in their orange 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.
