Dear Second Grade Families,
We are down to the last 4 days before Christmas Break!! I know that everybody has busy households as we finish all our Christmas preparations, yet stay caught up with our day to day activities. Easier said than done--but try very hard to enjoy some peace within this busy time of year.
Important Reminders
Music Program-December 19th
The musicians in Mrs. Bloomfield’s class will be presenting their performance on Monday, December 19th in the High School Hang-Out and 3:15 pm. Mrs. Manse and the class have worked very hard on this program. You will not want to miss it!
2015-2016 Great Results on Assessments Celebration-December 22nd
On Thursday, December 22nd, students will have a curriculum based fun activity day. In the 1st and 2nd grades, we will be learning about winter holidays around the world as students will explore the countries of Mexico, Australia, Germany, and Sweden. This exploration will include reading, writing, math, and geography standards. On this special day students do not need to wear their uniform--time to wear some fun holiday clothes of your choice!!
Along with being the last 4 days until break it is also the last 4 day of the 2nd quarter. Our week will be spent completing report card assessments. The second quarter report cards will go home in January.
This past week in math has been all about reviewing place value. Students spent time showing numbers up to 1,000 using base ten blocks, drawing pictures, and writing numbers using standard form, expanded form, and word form. We finished the week comparing two 3-digit numbers using the greater than (>), less than (<), and equal to (=) symbols.
This week we will review gathering data, tally charts, picture graphs, and bar graphs on Monday. The rest of the week will be spent working on using a number line to add and subtract postive and negative numbers.
Here’s our math homework for the week.
Monday

A.14 Counting Patterns Up to 1,000

As we close out the year 2016 and the 2nd quarter, we’re wishing all Second Grade Families a wonderful, restful, and safe holiday season!
Sincerely,
Anne Bloomfield
and
Shannon Garcia
