Second Grade News: November 6-14, 2017
Today we visited the Scholastic Book Fair. Your child
is bringing home a “wish list” that they made today. There is an order form for
you to fill out if you want to purchase anything. If you would like your child
to buy something that is on their list, we will return to the Book Fair on
Tuesday to make purchases. Please remember to add in 6% sales tax.
Reading: For the next few weeks we will be reading about
animas. Next week we will discuss the question, “How do animals survive?” We
will be reading several non-fiction selections.
Spelling: Our words next week focus on short o and long
o, with the long o sound being spelled with a silent e on the end of the word.
As usual, there are two
review words and three high-frequency words (sight words) as well. Spelling test
is on Tuesday, November 14.
