Math:
We spent the first week of school reviewing numbers 0-100. We will continue with this concept this week and look at skip counting by 2’s and 10’s.
Literacy:
We have been establishing routines and reviewing concepts from grade 1. The focus of last week was letter recognition (sound and print) as well as reviewing proper printing techniques. We will be easing our way into writing and decoding words for reading this week.
Have a great week!
