Dear Second Grade Families,

Happy Tuesday, and welcome back! Thank you so much for all the well wishes and sweet gifts for my birthday. I was so touched by your thoughtfulness!

We had a wonderful time last week reconnecting after a restful break. Last week, we began our current math block. We started by reviewing place values of thousands, hundreds, tens and ones. Next, we will move into reviewing the four processes while using multi-digit numbers. During this block, students will delight in hearing fables and stories from the Jataka Tales. The students enjoyed listening to the tale of “The Turtle Who Couldn’t Stop Talking.”

Last week we celebrated Nora’s birthday in class- happy birthday Nora! Our class shared what makes Nora a special part of our school family. Her peers admire how she always makes sure we are okay, is very friendly, and is the best friend in the galaxy!
