News from 2nd Grade
Week 2:
This week students have continued to work on developing friendships, learning routines, and getting acquainted with our classroom.  Students have really enjoyed new learning games and choosing their very own book boxes.  Exploring our math tools was a big hit as well as picking out books for our book boxes.  Students have also been working on the creation of classroom rules, circle rules, and understanding our new keys to success for the entire school: Be Safe, Be Kind, and Work Hard!
Next week students will continue to write in their NEW journals, practice the routine of readers’ workshop, learn math games, as well as many more fun things!  Please let me know if you have any questions about homework packets that came home.  You should do some work in the packets each week as well as have your child read each week.

·    Dates to Note:  *Open House and Dessert Night – Thursday, September 12 @6:00! *Groton Hike Day – Friday, September 20, Rain Date Friday, September 27
