Two more weeks!  I’m wrapping up the end of the year assessments and plan on sending home your child’s results next week.  Please watch for these important papers to be coming home in the take home folder.  If your child scored below grade level in any area, I highly encourage some extra summer classes or tutoring to prepare for third grade.  Please let me know if you have any questions about this.

 

I was informed that our class earned the second place prize in the most recent Box Top competition.  Way to go!  So, we will be celebrating with a dress down day on Thursday, May 23^rd.  The students may come to school that day dressed in appropriate out of uniform clothing.  Thank you for all of your hard work in cutting those Box Tops.  We look forward to the school rewards that come from this.

 

As we wind down the second grade year, I do ask that the students continue to keep track of what they’re reading at home and what First in Math game they are on.  They all should have an index card listing appropriate games that they should be playing on First in Math.   Thanks for helping with this.  We are very close to getting ahead of Ms. Hill’s class to be the top class at Holy Spirit!  I would love to end the year on top!!
