Second Grade News

September 17-21

This is a peek at what we will be working in this week:

Reading:  These are our reading vocabulary words for the week.  We will learn to read them and learn what they mean.

          clean                   many                  use            work

          world                 sign                     ready        phone

          compute         everything          farm           pound

          fix                        easier                 tools         write

 A good way to help your child practice is to put this list in a handy spot and have your child practice reading through the words a couple of times each day.

Our comprehension skill is author’s purpose.  We will learn that authors have a reason to write what they do.  Sometimes authors write books to teach us facts about real things.  Sometimes they write to tell a good story, and sometimes they write to convince us that something is important.

Spelling:  Your child’s spelling list is stapled to this letter.  We practice these words every day in school.  Please take a couple of minutes each night to help your child practice at home, too.  We will have a spelling test on Friday.

Reminder:   Please sent a note if there is a change in your child’s bus travel or parent pick up plans at the end of the day.   Thanks so much!

Have a great week!
