  Saddle up for Second Grade With Miss Sessions
  
  Dear Parents,
  
  It's insane to think that last year around this time we were told we would not go back to school for the rest of the year. I am so immensely blessed that this year, we were not told the same. I can not express how much I have enjoyed this second-grade class! They are a funny, curious, outgoing, intensively competitive, hardworking, loving, and most of all prayerful group of students. Thank you for sharing your wonderful children with me. I praise the Lord every day that we get to spend our days together inside the classroom! We are now in our last six weeks of school!! They know I am expecting 110% from them every day even now that we are so close to the end of the year! We are going to finish this six weeks strong!
  
  Here is a look at what we are doing:
  
  
  Math: We are on Module 15 which covers 3D shapes. We will complete our unit over shapes and start our next unit which deals with measurements. We will be using our rulers to learn more about measuring the length and height of an object. After we will review how to read a clock and beginning learn what half past, quarter till, and quarter past mean. Finally, we will finish the year learning about graphing and personal finance.
  
  Superkids:  Superkids will be doing a review of overall long vowel rules we have learned thus far with new words. We will begin with long a & e, move to i & o, and finish with long u. After there will be a spelling list that has all of the long vowel rules. Then, we will cover the Bossy R digraphs (ar, er, or, ir, & ur). The last spelling test will be Thursday, May 20^th.
  
  Social Studies/Science: We are going to begin learning about the branches of Government and important inventors, scientists, and artists of America. After we will learn about goods and services, as well as how the economy works. In Science, we are learning about plants, animals, and lifecycles. We will also look into our own bodies and learn about how we will grow.
  
  Writer’s Workshop: We are still going to be working on an autobiography! Afterward, we will begin writing short stories. We have started cursive. Please work on helping your child write their name in cursive and encourage them to try writing their spelling words in cursive as well!
  
  Thank you all for everything you do! I am blessed to serve your children as their teacher! J
  
  Sincerely,
  Miss Sessions
