Tuesday News

Dear Parents,

We are in the home stretch before winter break!  Tonight is PTA Eat-Out Night at Tijuana Joe's!  A copy of this week's newsletter, The Weekly Hoot, is under the News You Can Use tab.

Next Tuesday, December 20 from 12:45-2:00 is our class holiday party.  Please check our class Shutterfly account to see how you can donate supplies and/or your time to our party!  All parents are welcome to attend.  Parents who come for the party may check their child out of school and take them home at the end of the party if you wish!  Don't miss out, because it is going to be SNOW much fun!

We DO NOT have a spelling rule this week, as we are using our word study time to review grammar concepts learned this quarter.  We'll be reviewing contractions, proper nouns, possessive nouns, and reflexive pronouns!

Please continue to practice basic addition and subtraction facts 0-20 with your child on a regular basis.  Building basic fact fluency will help your child to solve multi-step/multi-digit problems and problem solve with more confidence and consistency.  Greg Tang has some great games for building fact fluency on his website www.gregtangmath.com--BEST OF ALL, these games are all FREE!!

I'm looking forward to another awesome week in second grade!

Mrs. Kidd
