Dear Second Grade Families,
Thank you to all who participated in “Hats Off for Cancer”.   Our class was able to donate 28 hats.
We have a full week ahead of us with lots of learning.   This is our academic overview for this week.
Reading:  We will be reading Around the Pond:  Who’s Been Here?   We are learning about Realistic Fiction and continue to learn comprehension strategies such as story mapping and cause and effect.
Writing:  We will be writing a letter to the families that have our Flat Person. We need all correspondence to your child sent to the school and by mail ONLY.
Spelling/Phonics:  Unit 9:  We will be looking at words with digraphs (ch, sh, th, wh). We will be reviewing words ending with double consonants.  Spelling Test is on Thursday.  Please have your child work on spellingcity.com to practice their spelling words through games.
Religion:   We started a new unit this week: “Jesus Calls us to Give Ourselves in Love.”
Social Studies/Science:  Maps/Animal Life Cycle (Frog, Chicken)
Homework:  This week we sent a new reading log.   We explained how to fill out information in class.  Reminder:  Please sign all homework papers, notebooks & planner.
Next week we have our Saints Parade on Friday, November 4th.  Your child must have their Saint Report turned in by Friday, October 28th.
God Bless,
The Second Grade Teachers
