Birthdays
We love to celebrate birthdays! Please contact me at least 2 weeks before your child's birthday. Grown ups are welcome to read a special book to the class, and we would love it if you donated a book to our classroom library. We love to ask questions about the day that the birthday child was born and see baby pictures too. Our class will also make a special birthday book keepsake for the birthday child.
Snack Time
We will have time for snack time every day. If your child would like to bring a snack, only fruits and vegetables are allowed. Don't forget a water bottle too!
Progress Reports and Conferences
2nd grade follows the district progress reporting schedule. We will have parent/teacher conferences in November and March. Progress reports will be sent home in February and June.
Mystery Reader
A Mystery Reader is a parent, relative, neighbor, friend, etc. who comes into the room as a surprise to the children to read a story. BEFORE your arrival, I will ask that you submit 3-4 clues about who you are. We will reveal the clues BEFORE your arrival. Please bring a special book to read. The children love to see who the mystery reader is!
Star Student of the Week
Each child will be star student. Star students will receive their posters on Fridays. They will take home a poster to complete and bring back on Monday. They will share the poster on Monday. We will talk about the poster and any extra pictures that are sent in. On Wednesday, the Star will bring in a special show and tell object. On Friday, the Star will bring in a special book to read to the class.
