Second Grade News November 16-20th

This is the last week of the 1st trimester! Can you believe it? The second grade students are working very hard and have accomplished a lot since the first day of school.

This week, we will be testing the students in Reading, Social Studies, and Math. We will also be writing the final copy of our first story. The students did a nice job going through the writing process.

There is a Social Studies review packet coming home with the students tonight! Please read each lesson summary and follow the directions for the "Before You Read" and the "After You Read." Following the review will help the students play an active role in studying for their test tomorrow. The packets DO NOT need to be returned.

Reminders
Thanksgiving Break begins Wednesday Nov. 25th at 12:30 p.m.

Important Information Regarding Second Grade Homework!

The second grade homework is changing. Please have your child return their math book tomorrow. The Reading Practice Book will no longer be sent home. Instead, there will be a single math and reading worksheet sent home every night in the students' "Take Home" folder. These two worksheets need to be completed and returned the next day.

The spelling homework is also changing. Instead of turning in the spelling homework on Friday, the students will be assigned one activity from the Spelling Contract each night and it will need to be returned the next day. This means that the students will have three things to return each day: a math worksheet, a reading worksheet, and a spelling activity.

You are still responsible for making sure that your child copies down the spelling words in their Student Agenda on Monday night, reads with you 20 minutes each night and that you check their homework and sign their Student Agenda. All of these items will be checked and counted for homework each day!

Reminders
1. No School Wednesday Nov. 11th (Veteran's Day)
2. The 1st trimester ends Monday Nov. 23rd
3. Thanksgiving Break begins Wednesday Nov. 25th at 12:30 p.m.
