For Spring/Summer Months:

HOT WEATHER INFORMATION

Water bottles are mandatory! I will be making sure students are drinking their water.

Sun hats & sunscreen are necessary! Please apply sunscreen before arriving at school and if you send some, 

I will remind your child to re-apply it before lunch recess.

Our classroom is not air-conditioned.  I keep the blinds closed in the morning to keep the sun out and open the windows to get cool morning air.  We also have a door to outside which can sometimes allow for breeze, if there is any,  BUT it can still be quite hot in late Spring/early Summer.

This website is your source of information for Grade 2B.  PLEASE take the time to refer to it.  

I pride myself on my communication and strive to keep this website updated on a daily basis.

Check the side bar for specific sections.  The Book Shelf lists some of the books that I have read to the children and you may be interested in checking them out. 

Each week I will have a weekly schedule for you to check.  It will tell you which uniform your child is to wear and give you reminders about class and school events.
