Second Grade

Welcome to our SUPER Second Grade!

We are very excited that you will be joining us this year to become SUPER Learners! Our SUPER classes will take a safari and explore animals and habitats. We will learn about communities, travel to the Moon, and look at folklore and traditions from around the world. We will work with three digit addition and subtraction, measurement, data, multiplication and division. Our SUPER Learners will also work with STEM or science, solving problems, working with experiments, and practice being engineers.

So, enjoy your Labor Day weekend! Take lots of time to read and be ready to put on your superhero capes this fall! We can't wait to fly through Second Grade with you!

Your friends,

Mrs. Brai, Ms. DiMaio and Miss Scinto

Week of May 20, 2019 We have a very busy week planned for our Second Graders! Our Indian Rock Field Trip is on Tuesday - please include a bag lunch with your child's name on it. We cannot have glass containers or anything that needs to be returned. Please do not include any items that contain nuts or nut butters. (Students are asked to contribute $5.00 to offset the cost of the trip.)

Students will also be working on exit TRC assessments this week.

We will not be sending home Homework Packets for the remainder of the year. Students that are not completing assignments during the school day will have work sent home to be completed.

This week, students will be working on narrative and opinion writing. We will work on geography and how people adapt to their environment our Social Studies. In Math, students will be working on strategies to support comprehension with fractions, multiplication, division, and numbers to 1,000.
