We had a great first week in second grade. This we will be learning about finding key details, short vowels a and i, statements/questions, writing a narrative, place value, and why we have rules. We are still learning our daily routine and building our classroom relationships. Last week, we have an opportunity to review some math topics on place value through creating monsters and have a game of musical monsters. Homework is due on Friday. Any questions please ask.
