Wow...next week we will be celebrating 100 days of God's goodness and faithfulness together! It's going to be a very fun day, and we will be sure to take some time to reflect back on how GOOD our Heavenly Father has been to us even through this difficult season! Thanks for being active prayer partners of our classroom, and for supporting us in the many ways you do!
Homework:
*Current reading and math pages are due Monday, Feb.7, 2022.
*On Monday, a new reading slip and math page will come home, and they will be due Monday, Feb. 14.
*Keep Practicing Psalm 121 together at home.
WORDS OF THE WEEK:
Thanks for helping your child practice these words at home: while, themselves, without. Please make sure to go back and practice words that your child has had trouble with in the past. There is a blue slip in your child's Friday Folder today with the new words.
Reading Blizzard:
The 2nd graders love to celebrate reading! One way that we will do that this year is by having a "READING BLIZZARD" during the school day on Wednesday, February 16. The students will come to school in their pajamas, and they may also bring a pillow, blanket, and a stuffed animal. We will spend a large part of the day reading, hearing stories from special guests, enjoying pizza together, and doing a variety of other fun reading/blizzard themed things!
100TH DAY OF SCHOOL:
Wednesday, February 9 (if we have no more snow days) will be our 100th day of school! Where has the time gone? We are looking forward to celebrating 100 days of God's faithfulness together! We have lots of fun activities planned, and one of them is dressing like we are 100 years old! (No wheelchairs or walkers though, our classroom just isn't big enough!) Don't feel like you need to go buy things...just get creative with this! We wanted to give you a heads up so you can start raiding your Grandma's closets for some fun ideas!
HC Trip Program:
Are you getting the most help you can for paying your tuition? The TRIP program is designed to help you pay tuition without extra cost to you. Have you checked it out lately? There are so many instant and electronic opportunities now available that make it easier, more convenient, and comfortable to use! Take a quick look at it and see how easy it’s become. Give it a try and see if it doesn’t lighten your financial load. Help is always just a quick question away. We love to help you make it work for your family! See the yellow flyer in today's take home folder for more information.
Friday Praise Piano Players Needed~ We've been excited to be gathering again on Friday mornings for a time of praise. It fills our hearts to hear the children's voices singing praises to God. We have some holes in our schedule for piano players during the months of February, March, and April. If you are able to help us out in this area, please call the SS office for available dates. Our Friday praise time is from 8:20-8:50am.
CEREAL:
Another thing we need you to have your child do is count out 100 pieces of their favorite cereal and bring it in a baggie with your child's name on the bag. If you didn't get it to school by Friday please send it in on Monday, February 7. Thanks! We'll provide the bowls, milk and spoons and we'll be having a hundred's day breakfast together on our special day! Your child might need to eat a little at home too--100 pieces is not as much as you'd think! :)
VALENTINE'S DAY PARTY:
We are going to celebrate Valentine's Day with a small party on Monday, Feb. 14. If you choose to fill out cards be sure to do it for the whole class OR all of the students with the same gender as your child so we don't have any hurt feelings. Candy/treats are also ok as long as they are packaged things. Thanks!
