Thursday

The students did a fine job today taking their spelling test!  If a student missed one or more words they will get a second chance to take the test again tomorrow!!

Our oral reading of "Dragon Gets By" went very well today!!

The class enjoyed making a paper sunflower today.  We will let them dry today and bring them home tomorrow.  We enjoyed talking about seed scattering.

Tomorrow the reading log is due back for the first time!!!!

Math homework tonight!

Hump Day!!

We had our first fire drill of the year today.  I am very proud of how well our second graders exited the building and got in line in the correct area.

Thank you for making sure your child did their homework and turned it in.  I had only 1 student who left it in their folder, at school, by mistake.

We began the story, "Dragon Gets By" today.  Your child has been encouraged to bring home their anthology and practice that story with you!!

Tomorrow is our first spelling test!

Tuesday

Tonight is our first night for math homework.  I have stamped the homework paper front/back.  Please have your child to complete the assignment at home and return to school tomorrow.

Today your child got their first library book of the school year!

Monday

I am sending home a reminder about reading logs today.  The reading log is due at the end of each week.

We will start Math homework this week.  It will be given on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The International Sunflower Festival will be having a Variety Show this Sunday at 6:30 p.m.  If any students would like to showcase their talents they are bringing home a paper about that, too!

TGIF!

A good ending to a good week!  Ask your child about the second grade teachers doing the ice bucket challenge!!!!

Thursday

We've already put in 4 days of school!  
Your child is bringing home a form from the PTO about the option to buy an Adena Warrior t-shirt.  They are only $10.00!!

Tomorrow look for my weekly newsletter called the "2-M News" to come home.  

The kids made a Monarch butterfly book today.  Please have them read it to you!!

Tuesday

Another good day was on tap for second graders!!  The next two days we will be giving pre-assessments in reading and math.

Thank you for so many of you who have sent back emergency medical forms and other necessary beginning of school forms.

The students can bring a water bottle to school.  I encourage them to drink a lot due to helping with hydration and energy levels.

This first grading period our class has P.E. each day and Library every Tuesday.

1st day of school!!

What a fantastic day of school we had!!  All 20 students were here and we had fun!!!!!
No homework this week for the students!  However, parents, you have homework!  Please fill out all the papers from Open House and return them as soon as possible.  I also sent home a copy of who has signed up for morning snack so far.  If the rest of you could sign up or possibly sign up a second time that would be great!!!!

The Night Before School!

Well, we are now in the night before school starts!!  We all get nervous and excited!  I forgot to mention in my letter you received at Open House that all the students in our class are welcome to bring a water bottle to school and enjoy drinking out of it throughout the day.  I like to drink a lot of water and I encourage your children to do the same!  This policy is in place all year!  
Well, let's all try and get some rest tonight so we are reading to go tomorrow!!

Welcome back to school!!!!

I am excited for Open House tonight!  I will attend my daughter's Freshmen orientation at 5:45, but will arrive in our classroom ASAP!!

I have our room ready......I hope the rest of the 2-M Family is ready, too!!!
