Second Grade Notes
Week of October 27th – 31st
I hope everyone enjoyed the Fall weekend and time with family and friends.
This week is Spirit Week at Trinity. The second grade is able to participate in Dress Down Days three days this week. The schedule is as follows:

I hope the children have fun with these days! I can’t wait to see what they are wearing!
Here is a look at what we are working on this week:
Math: We will be concentrating on Subtraction Facts this week. We will also be doing some problem solving with addition and subtraction. The Chapter 3 Math test will be coming up next Thursday, November 6th.
