2nd Grade Overview

December 20 - January 9

MATH​: We will continue in Unit 3 of Bridges. Our focus will be on strategies for multi-digit addition and subtraction within the range of 0-100. Students will be using number lines to use “skip jumps” based on multiples of 5 and 10. They will also use the number line as a computational tool to add and subtract 2-digit numbers. They will also be graphing data. 

READING​: We will start our new F&F unit on Main Idea.

**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 16. List 16’s focus is on the contractions with is, are, am, and us. 

List 16: he’s, she’s, there’s, here’s, it’s, that’s, who’s, they’re, wer’re, you’re, I’m, let’s

SOCIAL STUDIES: We will begin our new unit on Animals.

LANGUAGE/WRITING​: We will be continuing our study of verbs by introducing past, present, and future tense endings.

A few reminders: 

-January AR Goal is 7 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. 

THANK YOU for reading the overview! Have a great week!
