2nd Grade Friends

Home Links        Please work on Home Link packets as they come home.  The next one is attached and is due on March 24^th.  It is about fractions which tend to be harder so please take the time to work with your child so he/she fully understands.  This is required homework for your child.  Along with this, continue to practicing addition/subtraction facts up to 20, adding/subtracting two digit numbers, telling time, and counting money.  These skills need to be automatic to your child before going to 3^rd grade next year. 

      

Report Cards      Report cards will be sent home March 21^st.  We won’t have conferences

Conferences       until after spring break in April so feel free to contact me with any questions.  I will be setting up conferences after Spring Break. 

 

Book It            Book It forms and Family Challenge forms are due back on March 21^st. Please be sure to put your child’s name on it so he/she can get credit for completing it. Since March is Reading Month the form looks different. Our school wide theme is Michigan Animals, so we will be doing some activities related to that throughout the month.  Please check the calendar so your child doesn’t miss out on the fun!  In the packet is a calendar and some challenge questions to complete for extra prize opportunities.  You can pick up more fish in the library after filling your first five.  Make sure everything is back to school by March 21 so your child doesn’t miss out on the opportunity to win prizes. Also, if everyone completes their Book It this month I will buy pizza for the class!
