The Second Grade Scoop
January 20th, 2017
Hello Second Grade Families,
I hope that everyone is doing well. We have been working hard in 211. We have begun to learn about money in Math. We are almost finished our informational books for Writer's Workshop and we are enjoying our study of changes in Science. Today in honor of Inauguration Day, we learned a little bit about what the role of a president is and why we are so lucky to live the United States of America. It has been a fun month so far! Enjoy the weekend!

Math
At home, please continue to...
- Practice basic addition and subtraction math facts.
- Bring your child's attention to money in their daily lives. Let them help you pay at stores or play store at home.
- Assist your child with homework and let me know if anything is very tricky for them.

Scholastic Reading Club
Class Code - Q6MBY
Order Due Date - Saturday, January 28th.
The January catalogues have been sent home and we are just a few dollars away from earning 10 free books for the class. How exciting! Please take a few moments to explore the selection together and let your child help choose books he or she is excited to read.
For a wide selection of quality children's books that are just right for your child's reading level, please order online at scholastic.com/readingclub.
If our class places $50 worth of orders all together, we will earn $10 in free books. With each order placed, our class also earns bonus points that I can then use to purchase more books for the classroom or even other materials like math manipulative for the classroom. It is a great program to get involved in. Thank you for supporting your child’s reading both at home and in the classroom!
