Dear Parents,
Spelling:
This week we will once again review our two new 2nd grade, 3rd quarter Red Words. The Red Words are other and sister (3rd Grade watch and listen). Our new “Green Word Pattern” phonics lesson will be “ar” as in star.
Red Words

“Red Words” are non-phonetic words that do not follow the rules and cannot be sounded out.
Our “Red Word” spelling words this week will once again be the following 3rd quarter 2nd grade Red Words: other and sister. We will study these words throughout the week before we have our weekly spelling test.
The final grade for these words will be on Thursday, February 11, 2021.
Green Word Pattern Focus
RF.2.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words
Our “Green Word” pattern/focus for the week will be “ar” as in star. Please practice these words as your child brings them home on dictation pages. Weekly spelling words may come from the dictation pages. Students will be expected to apply all classroom information to ten or more “ar” words on their Thursday spelling test.

Reading
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.9
Compare and contrast two or more versions of the same story (e.g., Cinderella stories) by different authors or from different cultures.
Because of the snow days last week, we will continue to focus on our standard of RL.2.9 throughout the week as we review the elements of a fairy tale, as well as, compare and contrast two fairy tales. We will complete a large “plot diagram” for our new fairy tale, Cinderella, by Edie Evans. We will then read the fairy tale, Cinderello, by Evan Russell, and complete a smaller plot diagram, as well as, a compare and contrast the two texts during our Guided Reading groups. We will also complete vocabulary tests for each selection.
Our writing focus will continue to be informational writing activities within our reading and social studies. (W2.2)
Math
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.NBT.B.7
Add and subtract within 1000, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method. Understand that in adding or subtracting three-digit numbers, one adds or subtracts hundreds and hundreds, tens and tens, ones and ones; and sometimes it is necessary to compose or decompose tens or hundreds.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.NBT.B.9
Explain why addition and subtraction strategies work, using place value and the properties of operations.1
Our focus will be relating addition using manipulatives to a written vertical method and using math drawings to represent the composition when adding a two-digit to a three-digit addend. We will complete Lessons 14 - 16, Module 4, with a Lessons 14 - 16 Quiz, Module 4. We will complete a “Mid-Module” review activity and take our Module 4, Mid-Module Assessment, Lessons 1 – 16.
