Math: Morning Math Day 3, Spiral Math 26, ELA 23
Please complete the math homework tonight.
Reading: There is no reading requirement this evening.
Spelling:
Review our next three new 2nd Grade Red Words for the 4th quarter, sure, ghost, and oil and our next three new 3rd Grade Red Words 2nd quarter, whole, clothes, and sound. Review the dictation sheets for our Green Word pattern, “Consonant-le Endings" for our Friday spelling test.
Red Words
RF.2.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words
“Red Words” are non-phonetic words that do not follow the rules and cannot be sounded out.
Our 4th quarter 2nd grade Red Words are as follows: sure, ghost, and oil. We will study these words throughout the week before we have our final spelling test on Friday, April 16.
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 “Consonant-le Endings.” The endings are as follows: -fle, -dle, -kle, and –zle. In class we will be decoding words with these endings. Weekly spelling words will come from the dictation pages brought home in your child’s folder. Students will be expected to apply all classroom information to ten or more words on their Friday spelling test.
Reading
Identify the main topic of a multiparagraph text as well as the focus of specific paragraphs within the text.
Compare and contrast the most important points presented by two texts on the same topic.
This week in our Guided Reading Groups, we will continue to read from the text, “I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic, 1912.” On Friday of last week, we set sail on the Titanic, and we began construction of our daily journal for our voyage on the “unsinkable” Titanic. Each day this week, students will write in their journal and continue to complete their novel study packet and Google Classroom slides pertaining to the book. On Friday, the students will complete their journal activities. Our comprehension test and vocabulary test over the selection will be at the end of the week. We will continue to read passages from informational books about the Titanic, and we will watch several documentary videos regarding the discovery of the wreckage.
Writing
Write opinion pieces in which they introduce the topic or book they are writing about, state an opinion, supply reasons that support the opinion, use linking words (e.g., because, and, also) to connect opinion and reasons, and provide a concluding statement or section.
Our writing focus will continue to be opinion writing activities within our reading and social studies curriculum. (W2.2) The students will write several opinion pieces in regard to the “unsinkable” Titanic ship.
Math
Partition a rectangle into rows and columns of same-size squares and count to find the total number of them.
Draw a picture graph and a bar graph (with single-unit scale) to represent a data set with up to four categories. Solve simple put-together, take-apart, and compare problems1 using information presented in a bar graph.
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.
We will continue to review our strategies for adding and subtracting within 1,000 on a daily basis. We will continue to use our place value chart math drawings and to use the written vertical algorithm method to represent the composition when adding and subtracting. We will also learn how to partition a rectangle into rows and columns.
Science/Social Studies
Our Social Studies standard will be reading information displayed on bar graphs that can be used to compare quantities (SS.13), resources that can be used in various ways (SS.14), and how most people around the world work in jobs in which they produce specific goods and services (SS.15)
