I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday and take time to enjoy family and friends.
Please continue to have your child read every day and practice their math facts–addition, subtraction, multiplication.
When we return in January we will be focusing on the following:

Reading–(Both Grades) Fiction will be our area of focus, learning about character development and how stories can be written from different point of views.
Writing–(Both Grades) We will work on writing narratives. We will be using quotation marks and writing stories from different points of
view.
Math–(Both Grades) Our focus will be on telling time to the nearest 5 minutes.
Social Studies– We are learning about the government. Second grade is focusing on local and state government and third grade will be focusing on local, state and national government.
Science-Second Grade will be finishing up their Properties of Water Unit and third grade will be finishing up their Light and Sound Unit.

When we return it will be a very short time before we begin NWEA testing again.
