Word Work: We will be working with high frequency words, nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
Reading:
We will review and practice various reading strategies. We will also review and practice classroom expectations during reading time.

We will be reviewing the writing process and begin some storytelling. Students will also practice good listening habits/appropriate behaviors (something you could discuss at home too), and create a list of possible writing topics.
Math:
We will review money, finding patterns within numbers and create partner houses (math facts). We will also review many math concepts taught in first grade.
Health:
Bus Safety will be our focus.
Other: Over the next couple of weeks, we will be testing each student’s reading level as well as taking the
CoGAT Test and the MAP Reading and Math tests.
