Phonics words: knot, know, gnat, write, wrong (all 5 words will be on the spelling test) The students will also write 5 review words from the word walls. Homework Help: As we get closer to 2 nd grade, it is important that students continue to practice their addition and subtraction facts as much as possible. These facts can be found in the back of your childs STAR binder. When your child brings home a Rocket Math sheet, have them practice the facts they did not finish in the time given in class. Getting 2 nd Grade Ready: Math Common Core Standard: 2.NBT.1: Understand that the three digits of a three-digit number represent amounts of hundreds, tens, and ones; e.g., 706 equals 7 hundreds, 0 tens, and 6 ones. 2.NBT.2 Count within 1000; skip-count by 5s, 10s, and 100s.
