Week of March 6, 2023- Things we will be working on:


ELA/Reading-Grade 2

 

Ready Gen (savvasrealize.com)-We will be working on Unit 3. We will be reviewing short vowel sounds, syllabication, nouns, making sentences, and writing paragraphs. The children should review when to use a capital letter and punctuation at the end of the sentence. The children have received the vocabulary words for the stories in Unit 3, Module A. We will be reviewing these words in class, and they should review them at home (a few each night). See the class notebook (back of the book).


Please make sure that your child reads for 20 minutes each night, including weekends. This is important and a big part of their reading homework. You can choose any book that you want, and children can read alone or read with parents. Both ways are equally helpful. Try and ask your child questions about the story and discuss details with them. It is important for them to bring a book to school every day to read in school for silent reading. It can be the same book that he/she is reading at home or a different book. We are trying to build fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension skills.

 

****The Edgenuity Program: The children should be working on ELA for twenty minutes every night, including weekends. This will help to practice for the MAP testing in May.


All homework will be assigned on Google Classroom. Directions and due dates will be given. Please make sure that your child completes all assignments. If there is nothing assigned in Google Classroom, then your child should read for 20 minutes and complete 20 minutes of Edgenuity for ELA.

Science Grade 2

The students should study the vocabulary words/definitions and notes for Unit 2, Concept 2.2 for a test this Tuesday, 3/7.
