Reading:  Students will learn to ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text. They will describe the overall structure of a story, including describing how the beginning introduces the story and the ending concludes the action.

Math: There is a math test on Wednesday over unit 1 with adding and subtracting within one hundred. Students will learn to fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of Grade 2, they will know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers. They will fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction. Students will use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem. They will measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.

Writing: Students will write narratives in which they recount a well-elaborated event or short sequence of events, include details to describe actions, thoughts, and feelings, use temporal words to signal event order, and provide a sense of closure.

Science: Students will learn about the structure and properties of matter. Students will learn that different kinds of matter exist and many of them can be either solid or liquid, depending on temperature. Also, matter can be described and classified by its observable properties.

Social Studies:  Students will review the basic needs of people including food, clothing and shelter. Students will learn how families meet their basic needs in the local community. They will learn that a community is a place where people live, work and play.

Miller elementary school will be open Thursday evening for open house from 6:00 to 7:30.. All parents and students are welcome. I hope to see you there.
