Hello Parents!
 
What a great weekend!  It felt like fall and I got to watch a lot of football!  Only bad part was none of my teams won - boo:(
 
Thursday will be make-up picture day and we will have class pictures taken.  Please turn in your order form for individual pictures.
 
Friday is WARRIOR WALK!  Please turn your pledge folders in by Thursday.  The children are getting very excited and hope to win the "Golden Shoe" award for the 2nd grade class that walks the most laps!  Our class color is dark blue.  Please help your child wear as much of this color on Friday as possible - shorts, bows, bandanas, etc.
 
We will have our Topic 3 test in Math on Wednesday over subtraction strategies.  Your student has brought home their study guide to be completed and returned by Wednesday (they have 2 nights to work on it).  They also have their Addition facts for 5's and 6's this week.  The practice for this is in their folder and should be completed tonight and returned tomorrow.
 
Wednesday we will also have our first unit test in Language.  This will cover sentences, subjects, predicates, and punctuation.  We started reviewing today and will continue tomorrow. 
 
Here is the homework and test schedule for this week:
Monday - Math facts practice, study guide (due Wednesday), spelling and reading (signed paper due by Friday)
Tuesday - practice math facts and spelling words, math study guide is not completed
Wednesday - Math Topic 3 test, Language Unit 1 test
Thursday - practice math facts and spelling words, complete spelling and reading homework if not already done.
Friday - Spelling test, Reading test, math facts speed drill, turn in reading/spelling homework sheet signed
 
Have a wonderful week!

They are here!  Our caterpillars arrived today!  Everyone named their caterpillar and we will have a great time watching the wonder of their journey to becoming butterflies!  

Tomorrow (Friday) we will celebrate our first completed class WOW ticket with PAJAMA DAY!  They can wear slippers in class, but please send regular shoes for recess.

Three day week, caterpillars, pajama day....Can this week get any better?  I think not!

Have a great weekend, 

Mrs. Kane
