Welcome to my new 2nd grade Students and Parents!
This year we are going to be good learners. Second grade is wonderful year for children as they are sponges with knowledge. Because students are such good learners in second grade we will be doing a lot of reading and writing. Some of the topics covered in second grade include the life cycle of plants, water, matter, citizenship, addition, subtraction, measurement, and fractions. School begins on Tuesday, September 6th. The first bell is at 8:50 AM and school ends at 3:57 PM.
I want to encourage all parents to be active participants this year. Children watch everything we do and we can easily model learning by talking them through our thought processes. Feel free to call, email, or send notes with any questions you might have throughout the school year. Communication is the best way to show your involvement in learning.
Here are a few events to keep in mind:
Wednesday, August 31st – District Wide Kick Off at High School Track
Tuesday, September 6th – First Day of School (Full Day)
Thursday, September 8th – Otter Lake’s Back to School Night
Again, I cannot express how excited I am to meeting all of you and teaching your children.
