September 2-5

Hello second grade families! Welcome back to school!  We are excited to meet our students and get to know them!  We are looking forward to having a great year with them!

Please send your child to school with a healthy snack each day.  We will have a 10 minute snack time in the morning, so please send in something that your child can eat within that time frame.  Some healthy snacks include:  fruit, vegetables, popcorn, crackers, etc.  Please NO candy, donuts, cookies, etc. for snack.  Water bottles are allowed at school with water only!

Math: We will take a beginning of the year math assessment to see what was retained from 1^st grade.  We will also do some around the room math, this or that graphing, and math about you!

Homework: Your student will have math and spelling homework each week to complete.  Homework will go home on Monday’s and needs to be completed and returned the following Monday.  This will begin in a few weeks.

Language Arts: We will be reading stories and doing activities that go along with the story.  Our Class is a Family, First Day Jitters, and Do Unto Otter’s are a few that we will be reading.  We will be assessing reading levels and sight words in the next few weeks.

Spelling: No spelling this week. 

Homework: Please have your student read for at least 20 minutes every night. 

Social Studies:  We will be talking about how we are part of a classroom community!
