Looking Ahead: Week of November 7th

PDF of Week’s Spelling, Verse, Reminders

Highlights for 2nd grade in the upcoming week:

  • $10 donations for each student will help us to prepare an amazing Indian experience for the International Night on November 18th (get tickets through the PTF now!) A giant thank you for all of the support from so many parents who are helping to organize, design, research, and assist in so many ways for our country presentation. It’s going to be a beautiful, intriguing, and delicious display!
  • Permission slips for the Rotary Club Writing Competition need to come back to school in order for students’ writing to be submitted. If you have not signed, please print off a copy and sign it ASAP 🙂 The submission deadline is Friday the 11th!
  • Students will begin researching for their Science Report on an animal of their choice as well as for their Social Studies Report on a continent/ocean of their choice. We will be guiding students through the research and report writing process. Please feel free to ask your child what they have picked and what facts they are learning as they go! We will do oral presentations at the end in order to have students share their new knowledge with peers and to practice good public speaking.
  • Laptops have been made available for 2nd grade students. They will be set up in Ms. Mittelman’s classroom to use before and after school so that students have more time to take AR book tests. Please feel free to come in with your student and help them select quizzes for recently read books so they can test their comprehension skills and earn themselves points.

Thank you kindly to all who made time to attend PTCs or to make separate appointments. We are so pleased to have supportive, active parents on board. It is an amazing blessing for each student to be raised in such an intentional household. Here’s to continued learning for all of us,

Ms. Maurice and Ms. Mittelman
