Update April 22nd

Hello Wonderful Families,

For 2nd grade, you need to complete 6-8 hours of community service.  Think about great ways to serve the community in which you live or go to school.  Community service is a great way to make a positive difference. Community Service Projects will be due Friday, May 3rd.  A handout outlining what is required went home at the beginning of April. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to message me.
Our animal habitat research project will be starting this next week!  Handouts regarding the project and what is expected will be going home in Monday’s Homework folders.  Research will be done at home next week for homework. We will be writing their informational reports during class time in the coming weeks.  Dioramas will be due on Friday, May 17th. Mark your calendars for Friday, May 24th when parents will be invited into the 2nd grade classrooms for our Habitat Museum walk through.
