Last Weekly Update for Your 2nd Grader! :-(

Sigh........

It's always been "Happy Friday" but this is a very sad Friday for me...

It's the last Friday I will be your child's teacher. I have grown so close to these kiddos and we are truly a family here in room 12. This is such a bittersweet time - it breaks my heart to see them leave and move on to the world of 3rd grade, yet it makes me so proud to see how far they've come since August.

The tests are taken, the grades are in, I guess it's really over.

As can be expected, next week our schedule is a bittttttttt crazy...

Monday is the rescheduled "Tacky Day"...along with being tacky we will be completing our last "repeated tasks" for the year. These will be put in your child's data binder that will come home. Along with the data binders you can expect to see your child's scrapbook and weekend news book.

We will also be practicing our timeline presentation. Students are SO excited about this. The students have written scripts to tell what happened during each month of our school year. They also have created posters and are choosing their favorite songs to sing for you. I sure hope you can make it at 2:00 on Tuesday to see them perform!

We will be bringing our biomes unit to a close by having lunch at the "beach" in our own little "forest" we have behind our school on Monday (weather-permitting).

Wednesday will be Field Day from 9:00-11:30. We will be down on the soccer field and it is supposed to be in the high 80's. Please have your child dress in his/her PE uniform and bring a water bottle ONLY. Unless your child did not order the hot dog lunch, students will not need ANYTHING at school other than themselves and a water bottle on Wednesday. It is optional to pick your child up after 12:00 for early dismissal. Mrs. Hinesley is hosting an end of year pool party in her neighborhood if you decide to pick your child up early. Please let me know if you plan on doing this!

Reminders/FYI:
  • Monday - Tacky Day
  • Tuesday - PE Uniform and End of Year Timeline Presentation at 2:00 p.m.
  • Wednesday - Field Day (wear PE uniform and bring a water bottle ONLY)
