Week 23 Feb. 26 - March 1

Dear Parents,


Winter is certainly back!!!  Like last week, this week could be a bit cold with even more snow.
 Please make sure that you child has appropriate outerwear for the weather.

2nd graders will be taking the MAPs test Tomorrow. Please make sure they have a good nights sleep. Due to the MAPs test they will not have spelling this week.


Math
This week we are focusing on Partial Differences.  The students should be familiar with this
strategy and have applied it previously with addition and subtraction.  Here are some
examples of homework this week.
