2nd Grade Overview

February 7 - 11

MATH​: We will be in Unit 5, which is designed to help students solidify their understanding of place value to 1,000. Using a variety of manipulatives, students will create and count bundles (or groups) of 5s, 10s and 100s. They will also practice adding and subtracting using the vertical standard algorithm. We will also be working with coins to build money amounts within a dollar.

READING​: We will continue in our F&F unit on Important Details.

**Please have your child read for ten minutes each night. Include time for your child to practice reading aloud to you as well. 

SPELLING/PHONICS​: We will be on List 20. We will have this list for the two weeks that overlap with Winter Break.

The test will be on Friday, February 20.

This list focuses on the final stable syllable (dle, tle, stle and zle). 

List 20: twinkle, sparkle, crinkle, wrinkle, pickle, buckle, crackle, freckle, article, cubicle, tentacle, miracle

SOCIAL STUDIES: We will continue our Black History Study.

LANGUAGE/WRITING​: We will continue our study of helping verbs.

STEM: Engineering Challenges

A few reminders: 

-February AR Goal is 6 points.

-The rooms can be cold, so your child may need a sweater/sweatshirt (follow the uniform guidelines) to wear in the classroom. 

-Students may also need a water bottle that they can use in the classroom, but also outside for recess.

-Please make sure to label your child’s water bottle and sweaters/sweatshirts.
