A few note to parents~

Dear Parents,

By the end of second grade students are expected to demonstrate fluency with addition and subtraction facts to 20. There are three guidelines for fluency: Accuracy(at least 95% correct), Efficiency(speed), and Flexibility(if students get stuck they can use a quick strategy to retrieve the fact).

Our Forth Banchmark (Math test) will be given on June 20^th. In the test, “Part C” deals with fluency. Students must complete 15 questions in 1 minute of less, with no more than 1 computational error. (If a student can complete 15 facts in one minute they can receive the point for fluency.) On the back of this week's homework checklist paper, I made a copy of a sample of the fluency check. You may want to make up some questions and time your child at home…

*Along with this week's homework package, I sent home a field trip notice. Please sign and return the bottom of the paper by Friday, May 24 or earlier.

*We are going off track next week! The next homework package will be sent home on the first day that your child come back to school, which is Monday, June 10^th.

Have a wonderful off-track!

Book Numbers

Dear Parents,

I'm sorry that the Chinese Reading Books for Green Group this week do not have numbers marked on the cover. So if your student have a book named"漂亮的石头"， it's number 14. If it's "火成岩的故事", it's number 15. Thank you.
