First Grade: Our reading skill focus is on phonograms -et,-it,-ub, question marks, rhyming, and ending punctuation. In Math we are learning about odd and even numbers, counting by 2’s, 5’s, 3’s, and 10’s, addition and subtraction facts to 10, counting money combinations of 5, and telling time to the hour and half hour. Our focus in Science is on evaporation, the water cycle, and collecting and analyzing data on weather.

2nd Grade: Our second graders now have experience at setting up the chess board, identifying chess pieces, chess etiquette and playing the Pawn Game. Have them show you these things at home if you have a chess board. In Math, we have been working on mental math skills and place value.
