We suggest that you bookmark this web-page on the devices you would use for virtual school at home.
Popcorn – usually, students visit the booster hut on Fridays and purchase their own popcorn. This year, we are pre-ordering popcorn for our class in one month chunks. We have already collected money for October popcorn. Please look for future communication about popcorn in November.
Home Learning Routine – We discussed this with each of you at your conference. The grade 2 home learning expectation is: 1. Kids read for 20 minutes 4 nights per week. Kids bring books home each night. Your child knows what color tape is representative of books at his/her current independent reading level. 2. Dreambox – complete 2 lessons 2 times per week.
What will we be learning after October Break?
Reading – We will be studying characters. We will learn new ways to think about the characters in the stories we read.
Writing – Persuasive writing. We will write reviews about things we feel passionate about.
Math – Place value. We will work on expanding our knowledge of place value and how our understanding of place value can help us add and subtract more efficiently.
Science – Air and Weather.
Math Assessment – We are sending home a short math assessment we gave today. Here is a completed example. The most common mistake was 70-12=68 Ask you child to show you this tonight.
