Welcome back to week 5. I hope you all had a fun filled “Spring Break” and now you are ready for another week filled with learning fun! I will be monitoring you work this week, so work hard and meet your goals! Here are a few suggested assignments for week 5, April 13-17. Please complete the technology survey below for Mr. Short.

Technology Survey

In an effort to continue to help with online learning our school district and Haigh are collecting additional information about technology at home. These results help us plan for our instruction and will also allow for an additional chromebook pick-up day in the future.  These results are confidential to the school and will be shared with the necessary classroom and resource teachers and administrators only. Please complete this survey as early as possible. Thank you.

Mr. Short

MATH: Please start Module 6 and complete Lessons 1-5 by watching the videos in the below links. Students may also complete the homework assignments for the lessons. If you did not pick up your child’s math workbook when we had access to the school, you can use the resources below to see or print these items to help you. Students should also be going to the ZEARN math site and be completing one lesson a day. When students complete the lessons for the week, they may continue math practice on ZEARN. Remember all math lessons are on Zearn and it is great practice for all the math they will need for third grade.

You all have been working hard and you deserve a week off! If you would like to continue learning, all of the sites will be available, but teachers will not be expected to monitor the learning this week.

2nd grade Parents,

Here are some resources, lessons, and activities that I would like your child to work on during this time away from school. It is important that they are still reading, writing, and doing Math over this next month. They have shown so much growth and progress this year, I don’t want to jeopardize how far they’ve come. Please contact me at any time, for any reason through Class Dojo, or email. I will be in touch weekly through blog, and dojo. Please take care of your family, we are hoping everyone stays healthy and that this passes quickly.

Eureka Math

We are in the midst of Module 5- Addition and Subtraction Strategies within 1,000. Please allow your child to log onto Zearn daily, your child’s log-in information is taped inside their Haigh folder or planner.  Most students know how to log-in automatically. I have attached a link for Module 5, that contains the workbook pages and videos of each lesson. We are on Lesson 13, and it goes through Lesson 20 before the end of the module.  Please have your child work on each lesson 13-20, watching the videos, doing the problem set and homework (if possible) and going on Zearn.  When we return, we will move on to Module 6. 

This is the link to all the lessons and videos for Module 5. 

This is the link to the entire Module 5 workbook. 

Reading

i-Ready

Please allow your child to utilize and log-in to i-Ready each day.  This program is very beneficial and teaches the Common Core standards for Reading with follow up activities after each lesson.  Here are the directions for logging in:

Go to the Dearborn Public Schools webpage, click on Student Portal.  Then click on “Clever” on the left hand side. (It may make them log in here, or when they get to i-ready)  Once in, scroll all the way down and click on the i-Ready icon. Once here, log in with student number@dearbornschools.org (EX: 20223267@dearbornschools.org), their password is their birthdate.  This is the same student number and password they use on a daily basis to log into their chrome books.  Please make sure to put @dearbornschools.org after the student #.

Read Works 

Our students have never used this before, but we created a new class and this is a great tool for Reading various Science and Social Studies articles, vocabulary, and question sets to follow.  The multiple choice questions are automatically graded in the system, and any writing responses will be graded by me. I will assign approximately 8 articles to complete in a time frame with a due date.  Here are the directions for your child to access this program:

Go to the website: 

www.readworks.org/student

Your student’s class code is: C3MZ3B and their password is “1234”. 

When they log in, they will see assignments that I’ve given them.  They can read the article, look at vocabulary words, and answer the questions. 

Raz Kids

All Haigh students have a subscription to Raz Kids, their log-in information is posted inside their folder or planner.  They can read stories and answer questions to follow. 

Writing

Here is a link to various templates for Writing. In the first folder you will see ideas for Personal Narratives, How To Writing, and Opinion Writing.  The other folders are templates (blue prints) for your child to use as a guide to help them organize their writing. They are familiar with these blueprints and should know exactly how to use them.

Science

Here is a link that Mystery Science updated to make it easier for students to access and do these activities at home.  

I hope everyone has enjoyed their mid-winter break!

These are the spelling words for this week:

alone, again, agree, comma, idea

long, full, black, very, ago

Spelling Test on Friday. I know we will have many star spellers!

Field Trip money and PBIS snack money for December’s celebration is due on Friday, December 13th.
