We hope that everyone had an enjoyable and relaxing holiday break! We are cruising into the new year here in second grade! Take a look at our current units of study: In Reading, our current unit is called "Bigger Books Mean Amping up Reading Power" In this unit, we are learning about strategies for tackling longer texts with more complex characters and plots. We are learning to identify and understand literary language, develop more fluency by rereading, and using post-its to keep track of longer books. In Writing, we are finishing poetry and will begin our next unit on Gripping Fictional Stories. In Math, we finished our unit on shapes, partitioning, and time. We will move on to addition and subtraction within 100. And as always... we keep working on those math facts:) Happy 2018!
