WEEK 2

September 3, 2013


Dear Families,

We had a great week at school last week.  I hope you all enjoyed the three day weekend.  I know I did!


We are implementing a new behavior system school-wide.   We are teaching and expecting excellent behavior in the hallways and restrooms.  You  may have noticed the STAR posters that are hanging throughout our building.  Show Respect; Treat Others With Kindness, Attitudes for Success and Responsible for Actions!  If we can do this we will all be STARS!  I do have to say that my second graders have really taken to this new set of expectations and have received lots of compliments from other staff members.  :)

This week we are learning:

Phonics and Spelling:  short vowels, digraphs (two letters that make one sound such as sh, ch, th and wh.

Reading Comprehension:  Using your background knowledge to help with understanding

Grammar:  Using periods and question marks correctly

Math:  Ordering numbers to 99 and Addition (zero facts and double facts)

Social Studies:  How to be a good citizen

Science:  Air

Have a great week!
Deedee Cooper
