Curriculum Corner
Literacy
These may include, but are not limited to:
* Beginning of the year writing assessment
* Spelling/phonics assessment
* Sight word recognition
* Reading comprehension
* Oral reading fluency assessment
Along with beginning of the year assessments, the learners have listened to many different enriching pieces of children's literature that build community and set a positive tone for the year.
Math
Starting this week, your child is building their math brain through the use of number talks. They are learning how to use mental math to complete various computations with their peers. Want to learn more about number talks? Click here to read on.
Also this week, children have been meeting with their lead learner in some version of a morning meeting that involves a math routine to help them review 2nd grade math standards on a daily basis. These include place value, time, coins, adding/subtracting, etc.
* Note: beginning of the year math assessment will take place in the next 2 weeks.
Upcoming math standards:
2.OA.3 I can tell if an number is odd or even.
Video to practice this standard
2.MD.9 I can display and analyze measurement data.
2.MD.10 I can show data on a picture graph and a bar graph. I can analyze data in a bar graph.
