Welcome to Second Grade! I can't wait to see you!
I hope to see you at the upcoming open house on September 3rd. That would be a great day to drop off your child's school supplies and to look around the classroom, as well as to meet me. I am looking forward to a great year together!
Be sure to send in a healthy snack that your child can eat in 10 minutes or less for each day. If you send in something that requires a fork or spoon, be sure to include that in your child's bag as well.
We will have snack in the afternoon, so be sure to talk to your child ahead of time about what should be saved for snack time. Some kids will eat everything at lunch time and then be upset during snack if they have nothing to eat.
Also, now is a great time to practice tying shoes. I put a fun video about this in Bloomz that you may want to use to help your child.
Also, I will be asking each child to have an empty cardboard shoe box for a social studies project we will begin in the next two weeks. Keep one around from the back to school shoes you may be buying. Don't worry if you don't have one. I have been saving them too and I have some to share. Thank you!
