    Today we were scientists making observations with apples.  Goto "Pictures" to see what we did.  Your child's grades to date were sent home today.  Have a wonderful weekend!  Religion test will be on Tuesday.

    I am very impressed with the students in second grade.  They did a great job of remembering our routine in the morning.  They also got complemented on their behavior in the lunch room today.  I am sure you are very proud of them.  Have a great evening.  Our first math test will be tomorrow!

    Tonight starts their first official night of homework.  The written portion should take no longer than 20 minutes.  The time spent on practicing Little Miss Muffet depends on your comfort level with your child. 
    Students who returned the Highlights interest forms will all receive a homework pass.  This pass is for one evening, free of homework, at the parents discretion.  Parents must initial the pass in order for it to be valid.  Thank you to all who returned the forms already.  Your child's pass should be sent home tomorrow.  Have a great evening.  I am looking forward to seeing you all on Thursday evening.

    Well, we survived our first week back to school.  We had a fun day today.  We went on a tour of the school and used our cameras to help us remember.  The students told me they were "downloading the images" of the teachers and the classrooms into their brains.  We celebrated Mary's birthday (9/8) by coloring cup cakes.  The students got to become scientists and made observations about our classroom.  Finally, they did a scavenger hunt around the room. 
     
    Please have your child read "So Long Summer," over the weekend.  They will be assessed on their oral reading skills next Friday with that text.
