Second Grade News

        May 6-May 10

Reading:  These are our new vocabulary words for this week:

            eight               round              road                start                young             collect

            receive            ceiling             favorite           castle            diamonds       ordinary

            puddle            shadows         crocodile

Please put this list in a handy spot and have your child read through it a couple of times each day.  This week our comprehension skill is using context clues to figure out an unknown word.  When we read and come to a word we do not know there are clues in the story that will help us figure out the word.  We can use clues from nearby words and illustrations to help us understand an unknown word.            

Spelling:  Your child’s new list is attached to this letter.

Fun To Be Fit Day:  This will be on Friday, May 24 at 1:00. 

Track and Field Day:  This will be on Wednesday, June 5.  Please let Mrs. Kelley know if you can help with this.
