Summer is almost over...

Summer is almost over and a new school year is about to begin.  I'm so excited to meet my new students and families!  Please check my blog often for updates.  I am attempting to maintain my blog and the school's new web page.  To view current information on Reading and Spelling please check my school web page.  Twitter will be my new way to connect with parents.  Please click the follow me link on my blog to stay up-to-date on weekly happenings in second grade.  As always, I welcome comments and suggestions to make my website more useful to students and families!
See you soon!

New Schedule

I hope everyone has settled back into a school routine!  Students have adjusted nicely to the new daily schedule!   Just a quick reminder...PE starts at 8:10 a.m. every morning.  Please try and have your child at school by 7:55 a.m. so they can be ready for our morning special. 

Weekly study guides are sent home each week.  I will try and post a study guide on the school website each week.  It is imperative that students study the robust vocabulary and spelling words at home in order to be successful on the weekly test.  Students will take a spelling pretest every Tuesday morning.  If they get 100% on the pretest, they will not take the spelling test on Fridays. 

I am sending home a reminder note concerning parent teacher conferences.  Please read the reminder and return to me as soon as possible.  Thank you for your cooperation!

Have a wonderful week! 

Looking ahead to second semester!

Looking ahead to second semester, I will continue to update the blog and the district web page.  The class blog has so many great educational websites that I want to be sure your child still has access to that site.  The district web page will allow me to post documents that you can view and print from home.  How awesome!  This week we will be working on the Theme Test and we will end the week with a pancake breakfast!   Happy Holidays!

Holiday Program

The Holiday Program will be next Thursday, December 8th at 7:00 p.m.  Students will meet me in the library at 6:50 p.m.     Please do not allow your child to come upstairs to the classroom.  I will not be in the library before 6:45 p.m.   If your child has not brought socks for the program, as requested by Ms. Baier, please bring them by next Wednesday.
Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!
