Week of October 18th - 22nd

2nd Grade Math
We had our test on Chapter 4 this week. We started Chapter 5 on Tuesday. This chapter focuses on exploring 2 digit addition and subtraction.



2nd Grade Spelling
Words for next week include: bell, off, all, mess, add, hill, well, egg, will, grass, shell, kiss



1st Grade Reading
This week we started Unit 3 of our Wilson program. In this unit the children are working with the digraphs wh, ch, sh, th and ck. These letters "stick together" to form one sound even though they are two letters. We also learned that wh is only used at the beginning of a word and ck is only used at the end of a word right after a short vowel.



2nd Grade Reading
We continue to work on Unit2 in our Wilson program. This unit focuses on "glued" sounds such as: all, am, an, ang, ing, ong, ung, ank,ink, onk, unk.
We also worked with vowel teams: ai, ee, ey, ay, ea
