WELCOME TO SECOND GRADE: Another great school year is beginning and I am thrilled to be a part of it. We are going to have an excellent year, and I'll do my best to keep you informed about events, student progress, and school subjects throughout the year.
WEEKLY TAKE HOME FOLDERS: I plan to follow the same procedure as Mrs. Levine did last year. All work and other notes or letters will be sent home EACH THURSDAY in a folder so you can look at what your child has been working on. PLEASE return the folder to school EACH FRIDAY.
STAR READER OF THE WEEK: Each Friday students will take turns being the "Star Reader of the Week." The "Star Reader" will read a favorite story from home to the class. I will let you know in advance when your child will be the "Star Reader."
SHOW AND SHARE: Each second grade student will have an assigned "Show and Share" day of the week. When it is your child's show and share day, please have him/her bring ONE item from home that he/she would like to share with the class. Please look in next week's take home folder for when his/her show and share day will be each week.
Please do not bring live pets/animals for sharing. Some students have allergies, and pets can get excited in a different setting. If your child would like to share about his/her pet, pictures may be brought in to share with the class.
SCHEDULING INFORMATION: Mondays and Thursdays are P.E. days. Tuesdays and Fridays are music days. Wednesdays are school Mass/dress up days. We will also have library on Thursdays.
BIRTHDAYS: We will celebrate your child's birthday in our classroom. Summer birthdays may be celebrated on your child's half birthday or at the end of the school year...whichever you prefer.
As stated in the family handbook, birthday treats are to be:
- STORE BOUGHT
- INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPED
- ONE SERVING
- NO DRINKS, PLEASE
- NO CUPCAKES FROM A BAKERY/STORE ( These are not individually wrapped and are very difficult to hand out.)
