YOSS ELA

In Mrs. Berokhim’s 2nd Grade ELA class, students recently finished reading Jake Drake and the Bully Buster by Andrew Clements. They made meaningful connections to the story while strengthening key reading skills, including identifying the main idea and supporting details. The boys are now writing their own creative stories, complete with a clear beginning, problem, climax, solution, and ending — featuring exciting adventures set in the Amazon Rainforest.

In 5th Grade Math, students have been strengthening their foundational skills and are now diving into decimals. They are learning how decimals differ from whole numbers, what each digit represents, and why these concepts are important. With practice and perseverance, their confidence and understanding continue to grow.

Meanwhile, in 4th Grade Math, students are preparing for an assessment on multiplying double-digit numbers by double-digit numbers. Their focus, effort, and positive attitudes have been impressive as they rise to new challenges.
