Here is looking at our week….

LANGUAGE ARTS:

Reading:  We will be practicing our reading by reading our Phonics Library Books from our Series.  We will also continue our read aloud “The One in the Middle is the Green Kangaroo.”  The students continue to enjoy our new read aloud.  We will finish this read aloud next week.

Spelling/Phonics/Grammar:  Our spelling this week will be compound words Unit 25.   We will review: verbs, nouns, punctuation, two syllable words and ending words with  -er.

Writing:  We are making a poster “Sister/Brother for Rent” .  The students will have fun.  We will continue learning about persuasive writing.

Science: We will continue working with magnets.  This week our emphasis will be on vocabulary such as poles, magnetic field, repel and attraction.

Math:   We will be working on Unit 5:  5.4-5.8 in our Everyday Math.  We will  focus on line, line segments, polygons (triangles, hexagons, heptagons, octagons) quadrangles/quadrilaterals and non-polygons.   Please continue practicing algorithm at home.

Religion:    We will learn about St. Patrick.  We will make a 4 leaf clover with 4 things we are lucky to have in our life.  We are so excited about receiving our Sacrament of Reconciliation this week.  The students will continue reviewing the steps of Reconciliation and begin Unit 4 by the end of the week.

If you have any questions, please send me an email at secondgrade@sacredheartschoolventura.org

Blessings,

Mrs. Vazquez
