Dear Second Grade Families,

Happy Tuesday! Last week, we continued our work with the four operations and multi-digit numbers. We introduced regrouping with continued use of our place value manipulatives. This week, we will continue practicing multi-digit addition and subtraction problems using regrouping. Also, we will begin working on our play! More details to come on this soon- yay!

We continued daily mental math, phonics practice, and bean bag activities for motor development. As a reminder, please continue to practice math facts at home. Memorizing basic math facts (for example, 4+6, 5+5, 10-7), is paramount for mathematics success.

Last week in Mandarin, students were delighted to learn how to write numbers 1-100 in Mandarin. This was very exciting as they have learned to count and now write these numbers! Additionally, in Earth Education, second grade enjoyed learning how to make rope out of bamboo bark from our forest. Fun was had by all!
