Math- You made it through Chapter 8-good job! I promise that's the hardest one of the year. We'll pick up our pace a little more as we head back into multiplication and division of the 3's & 4's.
Grammar- I find the best way for student's to learn subject pronouns and possessive pronouns is just to memorize the list of each (in chanting form or the jingle).
Handwriting-As students finish their cursive books, they'll be sent home so if you get it back, it can stay at home. Once finished, they'll start the cursive book 2 from Memoria Press, which I have for them. They're all working at their own pace: our goal is excellence not necessarily completion so it may be awhile yet before you see the other book completed.
Science-We're skipping chapter 9 in the book, which goes into how to plan and then plant your own garden. It is a very fun chapter and if you have the time, space and inclination, I encourage you to do it with your child, but it doesn't lend itself well to the classroom setting.
