Language Arts:
"Today a reader, tomorrow a leader."
-Margaret Fuller
It's true! Reading makes you smarter. Reading is a skill that keeps on giving. Daily reading motivates phonemic and phonological awareness. Please make sure that on top of your child reading what is necessary for school that they are choosing books of interest to read at home as well.
Twice a week, my students will be reading leveled stories that are closely read in school. I provide the necessary guidance as needed for these books so that each student can indpendently read them on their own with confidence. I encourage students to read these stories aloud to their families at home, too.
Students in Grade 1 will be building upon skills focused on decoding words and reading fluency.
Grade 2 students are not only perfecting decoding skills, building upon reading fluency, but are learning comprehension strategies as well.
STRIVE - Students that read incur a valuable education.
Math:
Practice makes perfect!
First graders will be practicing their fact fluency with facts up to 10, while second graders will be practicing fluency up to 20 as well as double-digit addition and subtraction. This practice allows students to strengthen their mental math skills.
Resources:
I wanted to share with families some resources that can be helpful for the students to utilize.
Here is a list of a few that I like:
1. Reading A-Z - offers a wide variety of books in multiple genres, read alouds, as well as vocabulary practice.
https://www.readinga-z.com/books/decodable-books/
2. Education.com - offers a large selection of books, worksheets,
activities, and games sorted by grade level.
https://www.education.com/resources/
3. SplashLearn - offers an abundance of practice problems for each grade level math standard from Kindergarten through Grade 5. Parents and students can get access to a personalized learning path fit for catching up, enrichment, or regular practice of math skills. (Free sign-up for parents.)
