Second Grade
Week 5
Hello 2nd Grade Parents,
I hope everyone is doing well!
Below you will find various links that include: teaching notes, videos, graphic organizers, charts, math review, etc. All documents that require you to print off are a PDF file for easy access. We have also provided the same paper copies at the school for pick up on Thursday, April 16th. The copies at school will be no different than the PDF files attached to this newsletter.
We are asking parents to submit the completed work by Friday, April 24th digitally (text message, email) if possible or on Thursday, April 23rd when you pick up your next week's learning at home packet. We prefer digitally if all possible, but understand if you need to drop it off.
Parents, please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions you may have.
Love,
Your Child's Second grade teachers
Each teacher has included a little picture of themselves doing something fun this past week!
