Second Grade Overview
November 9-13, 2026
MATH: We will be in Unit 2 part 2. In part 2 we will focus on measurement.
READING: We will complete our F&F unit on Character. Look for the Character Skills and Vocabulary pages in your child’s homework folder. These pages will stay in their homework folders for easy access at home. Begin to have your child study the skills (pattern statement and process questions) and vocabulary words a few times each week. Use the process questions as part of your book discussions at home.
Skills and Vocabulary Test will be on Thursday, November 12, and the Performance Test will be on Friday, November 13.
-There will be study guides in your child’s binder. They need to know the pattern statement, three process questions, and their (10) vocabulary words/definitions.
*Your child must read an AR book of their choice (level 2.0 or higher) by Monday, November 16th, to complete an in class project to wrap up our Character unit. It must be a book they have not taken an AR test over before.

Our Spelling test will be on Friday, November 13.
The test will also include two dictated sentences that they will need to write, using correct capitalization and punctuation. When working with your child, remind them that there are NO capital letters needed in this week’s list.
SOCIAL STUDIES: We will continue studying Rocks and Minerals.
LANGUAGE/WRITING: Students will begin working with Pronouns.
A few reminders:
-The rooms can be cold, so your child may need a sweater/sweatshirt (follow the uniform guidelines) to wear in the classroom.
-Students may also need a water bottle that they can use in the classroom, but also outside for recess.
-Please make sure to label your child’s water bottle and sweaters/sweatshirts.
