It's been a great week in second grade! We have enjoyed the change in the weather and are ready for winter to be over. The students are ready for recesses that allow them to have "no coats". They are working hard on getting ready for their student led conferences and are getting excited to share that special time with you. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your child's life each day. I enjoy seeing them grow and change and find it hard to believe we are three fourths of the way through the year! 

Homework: 

*Current reading and math pages are due Monday, March 21, 2022. 

*On Monday, a new reading slip and math page will come home, and they will be due Monday, March 28. 

* Keep working on our Bible Memory of Matthew 28!

-If you have extra time around the house some great things to practice are: Writing numbers up to 100 (watch for letter/number reversals!), trying some triple digit subtraction problems, and counting piles of spare change!


WORDS OF THE WEEK:

Thanks for helping your child practice these words at home. We are starting our last set of 15 words! Our words this week are: really, understand, question


First Grade Bake Sale:
The first graders are excited to be hosting a Rainforest Bake Sale. The bake sale will start on Monday March 21th and run each day of the week during the lunch hour. Each baked good will cost .25. All funds raised will be donated to help save the amazing animals of the rainforest! Start saving your quarters now and plan to buy some goodies at the first grade rainforest bake sale!


SPRING CONFERENCES: 

Conferences will be coming up at the end of March (March 28 & 30 from 4-8pm). 2nd grade takes a different twist on conferences in the Spring--they are actually STUDENT LED. This means that your son/daughter joins us in conversation, and he/she leads the conference. We work hard at creating a portfolio and collecting work samples, and it is an awesome experience for you to see how your child has taken ownership of his/her learning this year. As teachers and parents, we are able to encourage and pour into your child, as well as find ways to challenge him/her for the last quarter of 2nd grade. This is a very important time together, and you'll want to save the date! Make sure to check you have signed up!


Living Hope Singers:

Looking for something fun to do as a family this weekend? Come to the Living Hope Singers' Showcase concert, “The Most Excellent ‘80s: A Night of Killer Jams and Moves!”  Enjoy an evening full of fun music, vibrant costumes, and impressive choreography. Shows are at 7pm Friday and Saturday night at the High School. Tickets will be available at the door, but they can also be purchased online at hcs.ludus.com. Feel like staying home?

The most wonderful time of the year! It is, isn't it? We continue the hustle and bustle of all the things we need to get done at home and school, and it seems so crazy! We plan and plan and plan! God planned thousands of years in advance to make sure the wise men would see Jesus' star and find him, He planned thousands of years for Mary to bear a son. He has planned years in advance for his coming and the perfect timing of his return. God's timing is always better than outs. We continue to wait with anticipation for His coming again! Homework: Next week no new Homework. We will start up after break. Current*Purple Reading Slip and Math homework will be due Monday, December 16. *Library books are due Wednesday.

They showed the 2nd graders how to play their instruments and then the 2nd graders played a song! Super fun! Look for pictures of this at the end of the blog. We had a super fun time with our grandparents/friends on Thursday! What a pleasure to see the beautiful connection between the generations! So much love to go around!
