Hello and welcome to our 2nd grade communities lesson website!
We are pleased to invite you on our journey to teach your child the necessary knowledge there is to know about the different types of communities there are in our country! Through this interactive website, we have a multitude of activities, text-rich passages, as well as thought-provoking projects to help boost your child’s knowledge of the world we live in today.
We will place a special emphasis on the type of community we personally live in to help your child get to know the world that is remotely and physically around them on a daily basis. However, we will still be paying extra close attention to the rural and urban communities they--may have already--or may in the future visit one day.
We are interested in picking your child’s brain for the knowledge they may have already acquired before this lesson. What buildings do they see around them day-to-day? What kind of transportation do they take to school? What makes up a city? What kind of opportunities are there in rural areas? We want to engage your child with new information but also rear them in making inferences and observations on their own.
Through this website, we plan to integrate classwork with learning at home. Please feel free to click through the pages with your child and help them make connections between the content they’re learning and the actual community they live in.
We’re excited to share this unit with you and look forward to you being a part of it!
Sincerely,
Ms. Falconieri, Ms. Frenger, Ms. Connor, Ms. Martinez, & Ms. Gerbino :)
