Classroom Update
Next week the students will be making tie blankets for the children at Riley Hospital during stations. In order to do this, we are in need of some fleece fabric. If you are interested in donating new fleece fabric (1 1/2 to 2 yards) for this portion of the project please send it with your child to school by Monday, January 29th. This is not required but would be greatly appreciated. We are excited to begin this fun and creative step in our project! This covers the measurement standard for 2nd grade.
Our Goals

I can work in collaborative groups to determine the main idea and topic in a text or paragraph.

Math Vocabulary:
borrow, carry, and regroup
Science
I can explain how the earth changes over time.

I can identify needs in my community and communities around me.
Important Papers
Students will be working on Wonders spelling this week. We will be in Unit 4 Week 2. Please see the link below to practice these words with your child. Assignments are listed on Spelling City. Students need to log in and go to the homepage to see assignments. Your child should know their username and password
(example Username: 28brillr2 (Sometimes the students forget the 2 at the end of their username) Password: sun (a three letter word)
A hard copy also went home yesterday.
Reading Log
Students need to complete and return Reading Log on Friday. Reading at home is essential to their academic growth. Students should read 80 minutes each week. Don't forget to take AR tests in the morning.
Parent Volunteers
Logging in to Google and Its Learning
If you would like to see all the hard work your child does at school you can log in to their Google account or their Itslearning account from home. This is a great way to help your child. I'm sure they would love to share what they are learning!
Here is the pattern prior to this year (we will send you the login for new students):
first two digits are the child's graduating year (which for 2nd graders is 28)
then their last name and first initial
For example itslearning is 28brillr (some of these have different variations if the last name is a common name)
Google example 28brillr@students.bcsc.k12.in.us
Their password pattern is their six digit student identification number plus bcsc
All of the 2nd graders know their regular passwords for the other apps and learning tools, but if you need help please feel free to text me (812) 657-2335.
