Dear Parents and Guardians,

Although we are back to a full week this week, this is a month with quite a few days off so the students will need to work hard to retain what they are learning.  Please make sure they read on the days off so they don’t loose the progress that they have made.

We will work on the following skills in Reading this week:

• Theme
• Homophones

In Science this week, we will continue the unit on Secrets of Survival which is Chapter 7. We will specifically be talking about weathering and erosion which is found on pages 92-93.

This week in Math the students will begin learning how to add two-digit numbers.  This skill is VERY difficult for 2^nd graders, so any additional assistance that you can provide at home would be greatly appreciated.

We will learn about the reason/importance of Thanksgiving in Social Studies.  This topic can be found  on pages 96-97 in chapter 5. 

Sincerely,

Mrs. Cindy Martie
