Kid Town

Happy Friday! What a fantastic week we have had in second grade! Kid Town has been a success and the students have enjoyed it immensely! We have seen wonderful examples of generous spirits and students who are polite and caring business boys/girls, and they have also been wonderful shoppers with a lot of patience. They have had a ton of fun learning about businesses and economics! Thanks so much to all the parent helpers who came in and glued items together, helped with ideas, ran stores, and helped us pack things up!! We could not have done it without all of you!! Your support is appreciated and we are so thankful for the wonderful, supportive community here at South Side! 

Homework:

Reading slips and math pages are coming home on Monday May 2 , 2022. They will be due Monday, May 9. 

* New Bible Memory will be coming home in the Homework Folder on Monday May 2!

-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!

Hot Lunch:

A paper copy of the Hot Lunch menu is coming home today in your child's Friday Folder. 

Words of the Week:

We have finished our words from our final set and we are ready for a quiz: really, understand, question, against, old, happen, several, someone, slowly, follow, better, since, answer, plan, wanted

Our test will be next Friday, May 6.


Tulip Time Pink Slip:

A pink half slip is coming home today in your child's Friday Folder. Please fill out this slip and return to school by Friday, May 6. This slip is for contact in case of an emergency the day of the Kinder Parade. More information will come later about our position for the parade and where to pick up your child at the end of the parade.



Ditto Store:

Ditto is in need of donations, and we want to make it easy for HC families to help! Next week the ditto truck will be parked at the High School accepting your donations during drop off and pick up hours. The greatest need at this time is for high quality clothing and household goods/decor. We will not be taking furniture at this drop off event. High School (near tennis courts): Wednesday, May 4 @ 7:45-9:15am and 2:30-4:00pm. This past year, ditto blessed all HC and ZCS students with a $325/student tuition reducing grant. Now's a great time to help support the resale store that supports each of our families. Thank you for your participation!

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.
