Dear 2A Families, We have done it! Our last week before break is here. I hope everyone has a beautiful holiday. Please bring a sturdy bag for Wednesday. We will be cleaning out our desks so that the cleaning crew can do a deep cleaning over the winter break. Also encourage your child to bring their favorite stuffed animal on Wednesday as well! :) LITERATURE Announcing our next literature selection! Please send in your child’s copy of Little House in the Big Woods. We will begin this book directly after break. It will be important for scholars to have it ready and available! SPELLING There are no spelling words this short week. Scholars will be taking 70 phonogram assessment and reviewing spelling rules and manuscript handwriting in preparation for cursive instruction next semester! Please be on the lookout for handwriting homework on Monday. GRAMMAR and WRITING This week scholars are narrating “Alexander the Great and His Horse” and learning how to write direct quotations. PO
