Happy Friday Everyone!  We had an awesome week in second grade!  The new reading block schedule was a success!  I am in the process of reviewing many skills with the students to prepare for MAP testing in a couple of weeks.  Please remember that we use Khan Academy during our math block and it is a great website to use at home as well.  I also wanted to share another website that you can use to help your child prepare for the reading portion. www.prepdog.com has many quick tests that students can work through that include a variety of reading skills.  

Here's What is Happening next week!
