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 20th. 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 10th.

Have a wonderful off-track!
