We have finished our second week of 2nd grade and so far all seems great! Our school is seperating classes by reading and math abilities, this year. First time for grade 2
Our reading class: We are getting good vocab words and actually had to study for some of our spelling words. A very rare thing for us.
I also found out instead of reading those little 2nd grade stories, they are going to be reading and discussing chapter books, first one is a Judy Blume.
Our teacher seems organized and excited to be in charge of the higher leveled kids. I would say atleast 1/3 of the class are in the gifted program and are reading beyond 4th grade, so she is sure to have her work cut out for her.
Math & the gifted program has not really kicked in yet, but we are hopefull.
