Needed Materials for Humanities (all second grade students)

Hi there!  We're into our Building Bridges unit for Humanities and will be attempting to build an actual bridge after we learn more and more about them.  Attached is a list of materials that each student will need to bring in for their bridge.  Let us know in the comments section below or by email if there's something you aren't able to provide so we can take the necessary steps in getting that.
Thanks, and let the creativity in all of us begin to grow!  All materials will be needed the day we return from the winter break (Jan. 2) so that we can begin building our bridges Monday, January 6, 2014.

Homework Packet 1

Dear Parents,

Beginning this week, all students will bring home a homework packet. Please check it daily.   Please help your child complete the homework, and please also put your initials on the homework so we know you have checked it.   On Monday-Thursday they will bring home a short assignment that might be math, reading, writing...the emphasis is on learning organizational skills by completing and turning in homework.  All Reading and writing assignments in the homework packet are due on Friday morning.  It is our hope that the variety and conciseness of the assignments will help students get into the "homework habit." If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

Thank you,

Second Grade Team

Thank you!

Thank you to all the parents and family members that were able to make it in for our open house night.  We appreciate the time you took to meet with us and discuss any concerns you had.  For those of you that would like to still discuss your child's academics, please feel free to contact us either through email or in the comments section below.  Just remember that your involvement at home is the first step in your child's growth and is so helpful to us as well.  Thank you again!

Math Test Update
