• Wednesday, September
21, at 6:30 is our curriculum night. I hope you can make it.
Language Arts: We will learn more about our Word Work Routines as we
continue to review long and short vowels. Our Work on Writing practice
continues this week. We will write about our weekend in our journal. It is very
helpful to review your weekend with your child on Sunday nights or Monday
mornings so your child will remember what they did. We will read and discuss
the book Me I Am. Then the students will create an “I Am” bulletin board.
We will be reading about frogs and toads. We will learn about opinion writing.
Students will learn how to complete an opinion pillar to organize their
writing. Then we will write our opinion piece. This week we will write about
our favorite subject in second grade and our favorite season.
Mathematics: We will be wrapping up our first chapter this week and
begin chapter 2. Please see the family letter on this unit and the chapter 2 wrap-up that will be
in your Spring Street Folder. We will be reviewing addition and subtraction
strategies. Students will be adding three digit numbers first without
regrouping, then with regrouping in the ones, then with regrouping in the tens
only and finally with regrouping in the tens and ones.
•Science: We will be learning
about frogs and their habitat. Be sure to return your child’s permission slip
to go on the field trip on Monday, September 26th.

•Social
Studies: We will design our class
constitution.
We will be discussing how students should behave so all of our hopes and
dreams for the year can be achieved.
