Grade 2
Week at a Glance (May 1-4)
 
 
      Nightly –  Read good-fit books/Raz Kids. Have your child provide a retell of the main events.
Library – Pack library books Tuesday to be returned Wednesday
 
Literacy:
       Practice/review all sight words and Sound Teams. If your child can read all of the sight words, have him/her try spelling them or writing them in a sentence.
      Reading:
·         When reading at home with your child, make sure that he/she is self-correcting. Students are encouraged to monitor their own reading and to back-up and reread if something does not sound right/make sense. The goal is for students to be able to do this independently without needing prompting.
·         Continue to work on reading comprehension with your child by having him/her answer questions (both literal and inferential – “why do you think the character acted that way?”) about the books he/she reads. Have your child respond  to books by making predictions about what thinks could happen next, and by giving his/her opinion on events in the story.
Word Family:  - ug
How many words can you find that end in “ug”?
 
Writing:  We will continue to write recount this week.  We will review the components of a complete recount which should include a good beginning (lead, and introduction), middle with supporting details and an ending.  We will continue to practice including: uppercase letters in the correct places only, punctuation, adding descriptive words, using sentence stretchers, and spelling  etc.
 
Math: We are finishing up our unit on two digit addition and subtraction. 
 
We will be spending another week on adding and subtracting numbers to 100, with a focus on subtraction.  However, we will continue to practice these strategies throughout the remainder of the year.  Please continue to practice adding and subtracting one and two digit numbers with your child.
