August 24-28

Team Peake,

It was great to see most of you at Orientation last Tuesday! Please take the time to watch the following video that explains all of the amazing benefits that the Sarah Smith Education Foundation provides for our children. http://www.sarahsmithelementary.com/foundation/index.cfm

We are going to have another busy and fun-filled week in second grade!

Here's a look into the curriculum:

Phonics: 
Magic 'e'
ex: make, use, time, poke
"e" at the end of a word has the power to jump over one consonant to make a vowel say its name.

*please see child's agenda for the week's red words

Reading:
Comparing and Contrasting between texts.

Grammar: Common and Proper Nouns
(Please see Links tab for a game if you would like your child to practice this skill)

Math: 
Continuing our study of Place Value

Social Studies:
Continuing our study of government.

Writing:
Personal Narratives
Working with Editing Buddies


Important Updates and Reminders:

Congratulations to our newest Star Student, Isa Dowdle! Isa is a kind, hardworking, and curious friend who encourages others to do their best. We are so thankful to have Isa as a part of our class family and look forward to learning more about what makes her so special this upcoming week. Way to go, Isa!
