Dear Parents and Guardians,

Below are the activities that we are doing this week in second grade:

READING/LANGUAGE ARTS: We will be reading "A Walk in the Desert" and working on main idea and supporting details. Our phonics skills will be inflected endings (-ed, -ing, -s). We will also be working on statements and questions and continuing with subjects and predicates.

MATH: We will be solving story problems and adding tens and ones..

SOCIAL STUDIES/SCIENCE: In social studies, we will continue learning about how diversity of people and customs affect ideas. In Science we will continue our engineering unit and begin group work to solve problems in relation to solids and liquids. Students will be working collaboratively and will use trial and error and research to find a solution.

TESTS: On Thursday, we will have a spelling and math test. On Friday, we will have a reading and language arts test.

Please make sure your child brings his/her take home folder back to school every day. If you have money or a note for your child's teacher, please make sure you place this in the take home folder. **//__All money should be in an envelope or baggie and labelled (i.e.: is the money for lunch or to purchase a snack?)__//****//__.__//**
