Greetings to all members of our class and your families!
This week we will be looking forward to finishing up our Reading lessons. The snow days took two mornings away from Reading, so we will be ready to test on Tuesday!

MAPs testing will begin this week for 2-6th. I know that our 2nd Graders are going to do so well. They have been working so hard in Reading, Writing, and Math all year long! Make sure your child has a breakfast and a good nights sleep all this week; please and thank you!
Due to MAPs testing neither grade will have a spelling test this week. New words will go out on Wednesday for their next lessons.

1st Grade:
Will be finishing up their Math Unit on Place Value next week and should take their Unit test the following week. They are rocking it and are understanding that in the number 23, there are 2 tens and 3 ones. Also, we are studying the concepts of > < and = (i.e. 47 < 33, and 12 = 12). You can quiz your kiddo with any number up to 99 (i.e. How many tens are in 87, (answer 8), and how many ones (answer 7)). This would be great to do in the car or at dinner.
2nd Grade:
Just began a new unit on Money and it is a long one! They will have several lessons before their big test. Please help your child count money any chance you get. Give them some change and have them count it back to you and/or while at the store have them count out money owed and their change! Great teachable moments for your kiddos!
They are working with the concepts of counting quarters (i.e. 3 quarters is $0.75, and 5 quarters is $1.25 and so on.) This can be tough at first so practicing loads will help them incorporate these facts into their schema.
