Mrs. Simmy Brar - Grade 2

Today we started working with numbers to 100. Please print the following chart at home and practice counting by 1's, 2's, 5's, 10's to 100. We are also noticing that students are reversing some numbers (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9) so practice with writing these numbers correctly would be greatly appreciated!

We explore magnets and iron filings today to help us visualize the magnetic field. Please ask your child to describe the picture to you.
