Dear Parents, In an effort to maximize your child’s learning during this extended release, we’ve created a learning packet to review skills that have already been taught. Included in this packet you will find assignments for reading, math, writing and a scholastic news magazine. There are also on-line learning opportunities through iReady and Imagine Learning. Your child is very familiar with these as we use them daily in the classroom. These websites can be accessed through Clever. You will also find your child’s QR code in this packet which will give your child access to these websites where they can continue working on their individualized learning plan. Specific instructions for each subject assignment are included on the following page. If you have any questions at all, please email your child’s teacher with your specific question and we will respond within 24 hours. Also, you have access to the Homework Hotline if you need immediate help. Instructions for that are on the back of this page. Please know how much we all appreciate your partnership in the education of your child. We hope you find these activities helpful as you work with your child at home. Sincerely, Second Grade Teachers Samantha Carney [email protected] Julie Cranston [email protected] Julie Evans [email protected] Melissa Lutche [email protected] Cara Thompson [email protected] Victoria Tuttle [email protected]

Millions of dollars are missing! The Mathhattan City Bank was robbed

yesterday afternoon. The thief was disguised wearing a bizarre frog mask and

armed with buckets of super sticky goo! The frog masked burglar sprayed

everyone with a special goo to make anyone inside the bank stick to the

ground. It was quite the sticky situation, no one could move an inch to try

and stop what was happening. Zac, a bank teller victim, was scared into filling

the villain’s bag with all of the money from the bank’s vault! Zac gave the

police the following statement, “The masked thief held a bucket of that

icky goo over my head and threatened to pour it all over me if I didn’t

do as instructed. Afterwards, the thief used the goo to glue me to the

wall so that I couldn’t do anything about the situation.”

By the time the police showed up, the villain had vanished with all of the

money. Unfortunately, it took so long for the police to help get all of the

victims out of the goo that they lost lots of precious time in trying to track

where the criminal could have gone. The police are desperately looking for

clues and any pieces of evidence that might help them discover who the

burglar of this sticky bank robbery is. Luke, the Chief of Police, has requested

that a great math detective help them on this case, “We haven’t got much

evidence collected, all we have is lots of this icky and super sticky goo

that was left everywhere. We urgently need a super math detective to

help us knuckle down who the villain is behind this sticky bank

burglary.”

MATH DETECTIVE NEEDED TO FIND THE STICKY BANK BURGLAR!

The police have made a list of all the possible suspects and where they could

be hiding with the stolen money. However, the police need a super math

detective with excellent money skills to help on this case. Let’s hope that the

stolen money can be found and the sticky burglar arrested!

Escape toFreedom

Watch our video about the Underground Railroad at www.scholastic.com/sn2.

On a cool October morning, Harriet Tubman stepped into the bright sunlight. She had been running away for days. Angry men and scary dogs had chased after her. The men wanted to capture her and enslave her again. But Harriet had escaped. She was finally free.

My name ____________________________________________________

Harriet Tubman was born in 1822

in Maryland. She had a mother, a

father, and eight brothers and sisters.

Harriet and her whole family were

enslaved. They could be bought and

sold. They were forced to work all day.

They weren’t paid. They could be hurt.

Harriet was forced to start working

when she was very young. When she

was only 5 years old, she had to take

care of her little brothers and sisters

all by herself. She couldn’t complain

or she would be punished harshly.

When Harriet was 27, she learned

horrible news. She was going to be

sold. The law said that enslaved

people could be sold. Harriet couldn’t

do anything about it. She was scared.

What if she was sold to a person who

hurt her? What if she was sent away

from her family forever?

Harriet made a decision. She was

going to escape to freedom.

Harriet’s EscapeHarriet ran away at night. The

dark helped her hide. It also hid

anyone who might be looking for her.

People called slave catchers chased

after enslaved people who ran away.

Harriet helped many other people escape

enslavement.

“They Should Be Free”Think about why Harriet was a hero.

As You Read

The slave catchers used dogs to

follow Harriet’s scent. The dogs were

terrifying, and so were the slave

catchers. If they caught Harriet, they

would hurt her. They would drag her

back to be enslaved again.

Harriet knew she couldn’t stop.

She traveled at night. She rested

during the day. After many days of

running and hiding, she made it to

Pennsylvania. Slavery was illegal

there. Harriet was free!

Risking Her LifeHarriet was safe, but she didn’t

rest. Many of the people in her family

were still enslaved. “I was free, and

they should be free,” she said. She

decided to go back to help them

escape.

If Harriet was caught, she could be

hurt, enslaved

again, or killed.

She knew it was

dangerous. But

she believed

that everyone

should be free.

She went

back about 13

times to help

people escape.

She rescued her

niece and her four brothers. She also

rescued her parents and many more

people. Other brave people helped

Harriet. They were part of a secret

group that helped runaways stay safe

while going north to freedom.

Harriet was clever. She was good

at coming up with plans. She wore

disguises to trick the people looking

for her. Sometimes she sang songs

that were secret codes for the people

she was helping.

Harriet never got caught. She

helped about 70 people make it to

freedom. She inspired many others

to escape on their own. She gave

them hope that they could do it.
