Reading Instruction continued… Imagine It! is a phonetically based reading program. Students
participate in reading authentic, high quality literature in student anthologies. The student anthologies contain time-honored and contemporary literature including fiction and non-fiction, poetry, folk tales, fables and fantasies. These selections encourage students to think and raise questions.
Reading and vocabulary tests are given after the completion of these stories.

Writing Write Away Handbook is the writing program we are
using this year. Students will learn the process of writing, forms of writing and the tools of learning.
Writer’s Workshop Students will take select pieces of writing through the
complete writing process to a final published form. Writer’s Workshop places the teacher as the facilitator with the students conferencing to edit and revise their work. The teacher conferences with each child and then checks the final draft. Published work will either be made into books, displayed in the classroom or sent home in a “class book.”

Handwriting Without Tears
Students have their own handwriting books. Focus will be on continued learning of proper handwriting habits and to apply those habits naturally and automatically to all writing experiences.
![Page 14: Welcome to Second Grade! Mrs. Buck. Second Grade Typical Class Schedule Chapel Mrs. Rioni (reading specialist) Language Arts- Imagine It! Recess PE Math.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649de55503460f94add12d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Life Books
Students write in their “Life Books” about memories in their lives. The students focus on writing about one event in vivid detail. Questions like Who? What? Where? When? Why? and How? are explored. The children have the opportunity to share their journal entries with the class if they wish. The children will take certain Life Book entries through the writing process and publish these pieces into small books. The class will have “writing celebrations” to proudly share their published work with parents and friends.

Mathematics
Our math program is Envision Math. This is a new math program that St. Michael’s has adopted this year in grades K-5 grades. Envision math aligns itself with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) which will be in place in all California public schools in 2015. The CCSS focuses on a more focused and coherent math curriculum. Thus, Envision math provides in depth instruction on a limited number of important categories of mathematics content.
