Happy Thursday!

We are moving quickly in second grade!
Thank you to those of you who came to Back to School Night to hear about our routines and curriculum in second grade. I hope it was a great night for you.
This week we are learning about "Being Me." We are learning about citizens who cooperate and make good decisions in their community and at home and school. The chameleon learned he wasn't happy when he wasn't himself. We are learning how we are special in the skin we are in and we need to celebrate "being me!"
Just a reminder that the family journals come home on Thursday and you have until Monday to return them. This gives you a chance to read and respond to your child. Last week we did really well with returning them on time.
Xtra Math homework is every Wednesday, but please feel free to do it as often as you like. It will only make you better! Other alternatives in addition to Xtra Math is flashcards and math games or math apps on your tablet. We are learning about math mountains, fact families, skip counting by 2, 5, and 10, and even and odd numbers. Here are some pictures of us getting up and moving to some YouTube songs/videos on skip counting.
So far we are doing well with completing homework assignments on time. If you ever need help please send a note with the homework and we can explain it better!


Good job on the healthy snacks! Thank you!
Have a great night!
Mrs. Montes
