Language Arts
In reading, we will be using information gained from illustrations and words to demonstrate understanding of its characters, setting (where and when the story takes place) and plot. We will practice completing story maps with this information.
Math
Wednesday, we will begin Chapter 2 in My Math. Chapter 2 involves skip counting, which is a very important skill for second graders to master, because it is the foundation for repeated addition and multiplication. Our goal is to make sure students truly understand repeated addition and that they can clearly represent it with manipulatives and in pictures, as well as be able to make arrays.
