Welcome Back!

I hope everyone enjoyed their week of Spring Break!  Now it is time

to finish this year strong and get these kiddos ready for 3rd grade!

Students are bringing home their school picture proofs in their

take home folders.  If you would like to purchase pictures, please

return the order form this week.

This week we are reading a story "My Name is Gabriella."  This is a

story about a teacher and a poet.  We will be writing some of our

own poetry this week!  Our spelling words are homophones.  In math

we continue our unit on geometry.

Our homework this week will consist of reading and writing

about what we read in our new reading journals.  Students

should read each night Monday - Wednesday and then write

about what they read in their journals.  They can retell what

they read, tell me something funny they read, did they learn

something new, did what they read remind them something

that happened to themselves or something they read about

in another book.  They should have the date and the title of

what they read at the top of the page.  They can use 1 page

per entry to write a paragraph consisting of at least 5 sentences.

These will be turned in on Thursday morning.

On Thursday, they will read this week's story and study their

spelling words.

I hope you have a wonderful week!

Mrs. Kane
