Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who are the other 2nd Grade teachers?
    • We have a fantastic team of teachers: Mrs. Camarena, Mrs. Clifton, Mrs. Day, Ms. Dunlap, Mrs. Schwecke, and Mrs. Weaver.

  • What is Community Collaboration Time (CC Time)?
    • Klondike 2nd Graders participate in weekly activities that involve our Academic Standards for Science, Social Studies and Health. All of the children are divided into groups that acquaint them with students from other 2nd grade classes, fostering the development of a strong community as a grade level. We rotate on a 6 or 12 week theme, and each group spends parts of three or four afternoons a week in each 2nd grade classroom learning about various thematic topics.
  • How does the Spelling list work?
    • Each week your 2nd grader will bring home a Spelling list with 10 words. These words are chosen based on a Pre-Test given on Friday of each week. The works will be accompanied by a "Spelling Score Four" sheet. Students are to choose at least four of the listed options for practicing the words and return the Score Four Sheet on Fridays. A Post-Test will be given on Fridays.
