Parent Note for the story Rosa and BlancaThis week we are learning about long i. The long i sound is the sound you hear in ice cream. Sometimes the long i sound can be spelled with an i (like in wild), with ie (like in tie), with igh (like in flight), or with a y (like in fly). Today we practiced reading words with the long i
sound. Let your child share with you what they learned today and allow them to read these words to you. If they get them all right, give them a big hug. If they have a harder time, give them a hug for doing their best and keep practicing. After all, practice makes perfect! The Second Grade Teachers

Listening comprehension: use the posters below to discuss PLOT.
Shared writing: write an ad using writing transparency 14 (use magazines for ideas if kids can’t come up with a new idea)
Grammar: verbs (more verbs)
What happens at the beginning,
middle and end is the plot.
Every story has one big idea.
Good readers pay attention to what happens and the order in which it happens. Then they
think about what they learned to help them understand the big
idea of a story.
