Students will learn about Mesopotamia, the importance of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, and the earliest form of writing: cuneiform. They will also learn about Egypt, the importance of the Nile River, and the building of the Great Pyramid.

In the first two parts of the domain, the concept of religion in Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt is introduced as one of the forces shaping those civilizations. 

Throughout this domain, students will focus on informational writing. They will compare key components, create timelines, and collaborate with their peers to write about what they learned.

During this month, we will be working on Unit 4, where students will learn that two-digit numbers are made up of tens and ones. For example, 42 means 4 tens and 2 ones.

Students will practice:

• Building numbers using connecting cubes (tens and ones)

• Drawing tens and ones

• Counting by tens and then “counting on” with ones

• Comparing numbers using the symbols < and >
  
  

These activities help students understand how numbers are built so they can move from simple counting to a stronger number sense. This foundation will support them as they solve more complex math problems in second grade.

Thank you for supporting your child’s math learning!

This month, we will be celebrating Black History Month. Each classroom will focus specifically on honoring their lives and contributions!

The students are learning the lyrics of our morning songs called “Los días de la semana".

We encourage you to practice at home!
