October 1-5

Picture Day is Tuesday!  We will have head shots and full length class shots.  We are scheduled to go at the end of the day. Sigh.  Hopefully we will get bumped up to an earlier slot.

Wednesday is Walk to School Day! Do your best to help your child walk to school on that day!  If your child is unable to walk to school there is an opportunity to walk during the lunch recess.

We are walking to Mama Susi's bakeshop on Wednesday after lunch.  Be sure to turn in those walking field trip permission slips right away! Read the permission slip for more information about this trip.

We are happy to have Maya and Eliyah representing our class on Green Team this year.  There was a lot of interest and we are hoping to be a part of many Green Team initiatives this year as a class.

Million Minutes of Reading Challenge starts this week!  Be sure to help your child log those minutes!  Thanks to John Chapman Rienstra for being our Million Minutes volunteer this year.  He will be collecting the reading logs from me and helping us total the minutes we read.

Check out our class doing the Second Grade Promise in Sign Language by clicking HERE.   This is a secure link, so only people with the direct link can see it.  Enjoy! (You'll have to watch 3 seconds of an ad, then you can skip it.)

Finally, please keep me informed of any difficulties you may have with the homework packets.  It shouldn't be a struggle to complete the homework, but I can't promise that learning the responsibility of daily homework won't be without challenges...
