Star Students for the Month of September & October:
Ivie: Oct. 07 ** Hanne: Oct. 21
Reading in Class: We will still be reading expository text and we will test on Friday for main idea and key details. We are also reviewing all short vowel sounds in words.
Math in Class: We will be testing on Monday to check our understanding of 2-step word problems. Then we will be working on adding 2-digit numbers with regrouping. See the family letter below.
Reading Passages (optional, but highly encouraged!!) : Stories went home this past Friday. Encourage your child to read them to you (3 times), sign it, and send it back with them. They get class money for this!
**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 black 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.
