Week of March 18, 2024

 

Please Note

-We had so much fun talking about our leprechaun traps last week. Their creativity and engineering skills blew me away. We had so much fun looking at each other's traps and Lucky the Leprechaun even stopped by in the afternoon! Check out the pictures of the traps.

- Report cards will be sent home tomorrow. You may keep the report card at home. Please sign and return only the envelope.

- We will have a reading and spelling test on Friday on Unit 6 Week 3

Week of March 4, 2024

Please Note

-The second trimester closes this Friday and I can assure you that this last trimester will FLY by. In this final trimester, we really focus on responsibility, independence, and self-control. We talk a lot about being "almost second graders" and what being in second grade entails. One of the best parts of teaching first grade is seeing the growth that each child makes in 9 short months. Thinking back from September until now they are completely different kids! I am sure you see it too :)

- Due to the short week, we will not test in reading or spelling. 

- No school for students on Friday! Enjoy the long weekend!

- Don't forget that leprechaun traps should be sent to school next Friday, March 15th!

- Have a great week!
