Week 23 Good Bye February, Hello March



                February 26, 2018
Dear Parents,

Winter is certainly back!!!  Like last week, this week could be a bit cold with even
more snow.  Please make sure that you child has appropriate outerwear for the
weather.

Math
This week we are focusing on Partial Differences.  The students should be familiar
with this strategy and have applied it previously with addition and subtraction.  Here
are some examples of homework this week.

Partial Differences With Renaming
Example:
  4 6 7 400 + 60 + 7   1.  Show the minuend in expanded form.          
-  2 9 8 200 + 90 + 8   2.  Show the subtrahend in expanded form.
  2 0 0      200 - 30  - 1  3. Subtract the hundreds, then the tens, and the ones.
  -  3 0                          4.  Add the partial differences--200 - 30 - 1 = 169
 1  7 0                           5.  Watch out for negative numbers!!
     - 1

2nd Grade Reading

The 2nd graders will have Winter MAPS testing on Monday, February 26.  We took
this test at the beginning of the school year.  I am looking forward to seeing all of the
growth my students have made in reading.

Due to MAPS testing, we will not have spelling words this week and will resume our
spelling practice on March 5.

Sincerely,
Anne Bloomfield
