First Grade
Reading and Language Arts - This week we worked on rhyming with nonsense words. We also worked with onset fluency, blending and identifying final and medial sounds.

Math - We continued to work with subtraction concepts this week. Please practice addition and subtraction concepts with your children at home.

Second Grade
Reading and Language Arts - This week we worked on the bonus letters: ff, ll, and ss. We also worked with glued sounds such as: all, ang, ank, ing, ink, ong, onk, ung, unk, am, and an. The children worked very hard this week and I am very proud of them. Next week I will be introducing vowel teams to the children.

Math - This week we took our chapter test on place value to 100. We also started a new chapter on number patterns and concepts.

Don't forget to wear green on Fridays for Character Counts!
