LANGUAGE ARTS: This week we read and discussed Meet Me Halfway and Big Red Lollipop. Meet Me Halfway is an informational text while Big Red Lollipop is a realistic fiction selection. We worked on skills such as decoding words with final consonant blends, decoding words with the prefixes "un" and "re" as in unable and rewrite, using context clues to determine meanings of unfamiliar words, capitalizing names for special people, animals, places, and things, and learning ten new high-frequency words.
MATH: We took the chapter test over adding within 100 using strategies and started a new chapter over fluently adding within 100. So far students have added two-digit numbers using tens and ones models.
FIRST RECONCILIATION: Thank you for sending your child's First Reconciliation book to school on Monday. We discussed chapter two in class. Please complete chapter 3 at home with your child and return the book to school on Monday, October 16. We will be discussing chapter 3 in class next week.
SECOND GRADE MASS: The second grade class is in charge of the school Mass next Wednesday, October 18. Please look for a note in today's take home folder to see what special part your child will have in our Mass. Mass begins at 9:15 in the school gym. We hope to see you there if you are able to come!
