Wow, it really feels like school is in full gear now!  Here are some updates for everyone:
Pumpkin Patch Field Trip October 22nd.  We will leave school at 9:00 am and return by 11:15.  Please have your child dress for the weather. We will go rain or shine.  Please send an plastic bag with your child on Thursday so they can carry their pumpkin home!  I am in the process of notifying chaperones.
Library is every Tuesday.  Please help your child remember to bring back their books each Monday or Tuesday so we can get the books returned and check out new ones!
PE is on Friday. Please remember you child should be wearing shoes appropriate for gym class every Friday.
Volunteers I am ready to welcome you when you are ready to come to class.  It is important to email if you are not able to attend because I will be planning activities around your attendance.  The best time to arrive for MATH help is 8:15 M, W, Th, F.  The best time to arrive for READING is M, Tu, Th, F  10:15-11:15.  Wednesday is not a good time to come in for reading because our schedule is so choppy.  If you would like to help with WRITING on Wednesday  please arrive at 12:00-1:00. (Writing help TOMORROW would be awesome)  Many of you signed up at back to school night.  I prefer not to list names in this email.  Please just confirm if you are still available by responding to this email.   I am so excited and happy to welcome all of you to our class.  It is already an amazing year!!!

Today's Firefighter Visit ~ October 13th

Today we had an exciting visit from 3 firefighters.  We talked about fire safety, having a plan if you have a fire in your home, and the importance of not hiding or being afraid of a firefighter who might be in your home to save your life.  Please enjoy these photographs of our visit.




Jog-A-Thon Fun!

Please enjoy these photographs of the Jog-a-Thon on Thursday.  It was perfect weather.  I am very impressed with the amount of laps completed by our 2nd grade students.  Don't forget to send in your pledge envelopes!  Thanks for all you do.  ~Donna
