Families,

Our blog is up and running again! Check here each Friday for updates on our up coming week! I will always post important dates and reminders as well as what we will be accomplishing academically.

Important Dates/Reminders:

• Last week a green paper came home with a list of our 2nd grade Social Studies dates. Please mark these on your calendar and try to avoid scheduling conflicts on these few Fridays. Thanks!
• Scholastic book orders are due Friday, September 20th. If you choose to order books, please do so ONLINE using the class code NNX2P.
• We are getting ready for our school Walk-a-Thon on Friday, September 27th! Please register your child using the link below! The money goes to funds at Alward and the class that raises the most gets $100 to spend on their classroom (our class is currently in ___ place)! https://www.getmovinfundhub.com/register?school_uuid=5d2e05bfcd92b

Reading: We will look at reading strategies to help us when words get tricky! We will check the picture and think “what would make sense?,” we will use what’s happening in the story, and we will look through the whole word, part by part.

Phonics: We will continue to look at long vowels and silent e, vowel teams, and “exception words.” We will also learn more snap words and look at r-controlled vowels.

Writing: We will continue to work on our narrative writing and look at how to add a good beginning, end, and details.

Math: We will learn how to add 3 or 4 numbers together and strategies to solve word problems.

Have a great weekend!
