Here's what's Happening in second grade!
This week coming up we will be focusing on journal writing procedures and expectations. Our story for the week is Dogs by Jennifer Blizin Gillis. We will focus on the essential question, "What do pets need to be healthy and happy?" We will also be introducing author's purpose. Our first math "Celebration of Learning" will take place on Wednesday. A math review came home in your child's mail on Friday and is due by Tuesday.
Mrs. Call has graciously volunteered to plan our Halloween party for us this year. The Halloween parade will be on October 31st at 9:30am. You are welcome to come in around 9:15am if your child needs help putting on a costume, make up, etc. Please plan on joining us for the parade and then our party will immediately follow in the classroom from 10:00-11:00am. It will be short, but sweet! Mrs. Call has the list of parents who signed up to volunteer, so please expect to hear from her in the coming weeks.
Finally, Mrs. Johnson is trying to round up the last of the Time for Kids funds for the 2016-2107 school year. About half of our class has turned in money, but we would love to have 100% participation! The cost of the TFK magazines is $5 per student. This is a donation, but every little bit helps! If you would still like to contribute, please send in your money as soon as possible. You can send in cash or make a check payable to Whiteford Schools. Don't forget to include your phone number on the check, please!
