Hello 2nd Grade Families!

Wow! We blinked and the holiday season is over and we are halfway through the year! Thank you for all of your support so far this year!

We have been working so hard and learning so much! Now that our Progress Monitoring results are in, we are ready to make an action plan to finish strong. It was fabulous to see all the student growth!

Please continue to review the skills in the Practice Packets with your child and return the packets to me on Fridays. Be sure to leave comments at the bottom of the front page and reach out to me if you have any questions.
