Wow!  It's hard to believe this is only our second week of school!  We are doing such a great job learning our routines and procedures! Here is our week of learning at a glance: 

Reading: I can make connections (text to self, text to text, and text to world) with a story.

 Writing:I can write a small moment story using sketches and words. I can work with a writing partner . 

Math: I can write numbers using different forms. ( Standard form, expanded form, base 10 blocks, and word form). I can use a 100’s chart to compare numbers.

 Science: I can make safe choices with science tools.  

Class Celebrations:  

We ALL had enough points to cash in for rewards!  I am so proud of their behavior! Ellie lost a tooth today!  She was able to add her name to our tooth graph!

WELCOME TO SECOND GRADE!

It's hard to believe we will begin our year of learning together!  I hope you had a great summer and you are as excited about this school year as I am!  I just wanted to send a few reminders to help make our first few days successful!

*  I will meet your child in the hallway tomorrow morning between 7:15 and 7:30.  We will enter our  class together to begin our day.

  * Our class has PE on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.  Please make sure your child wears tennis shoes on these days. With our busy day of learning, we do not have time to "change into our tennis shoes." 

   *   To help ensure a safe, timely dismissal you can help by making  sure you have your car tag before dismissal on Thursday if your child is a car rider.   You can get as many tags as you need from our wonderful office staff. 

  *  If your child is a bus rider,  please make sure your child knows their bus number. If you have not given it to me yet, please just send me a quick e-mail so I can get your child home safely. 

* We have a long morning and I will provide time for a healthy, snack each day.  Please make sure to pack a healthy, easy to eat snack so we can transition to our learning. Also, please make sure your child has a water bottle to keep cool, fresh water at their desk.  Water bottles with spill proof lids are the best since we have access to iPads and chrome books on a daily basis.  

I look forward to getting to know your  child this year!
