Soaring into 2nd
grade
Reading: In reading this week we
reviewed the skill sequencing with
the stories Ceaser Chavez and Brave
Bessie. We also reviewed synonyms
which we are great at!
Grammar: In grammar we talked
about possessive pronouns.
Writing: We went back to cursive this
week for writing. We learned the
uppercase letters, K, H, U, V, W, and
Y. The students also spent time
practicing their names in cursive.
Math: We continued with
measurement this week. We talked
about estimation and continued
practicing measuring items in both
inches and centimeters. We also
spent a couple days drawing lines of
a certain length. Next week we will
begin talking about basic conversions
which can get a little tricky.
Have a wonderful weekend!

High Frequency Words
If your child is having trouble reading the basic
words which make up most of our stories, please
take time each week to practice the following words
each night for 5 minutes. It will make a huge
difference in their reading fluency. I will include the
weekly high frequency words in the newsletter for
you.

Next week we will be taking the time to celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday! We have several fun activities
planned which do NOT include testing (whoop, whoop)!! Please see the back of the newsletter for
