Dear Families,
Wow! There is so much going on, I don’t know where to
start. First, we have a new student
joining our class. His name is
Cash. He will join us Thursday
morning. We made welcome to Camas Ridge
cards today. Everyone is excited to have
a new student join our second grade community.
Another new member of our community is Cate Huang. She is currently working toward her teaching
certification. She is student teaching in our classroom until the end of
April. She is also a Camas Ridge
parent. We are VERY lucky to have
her. If you see her please welcome her
to our class. Last week she sent home a
green form to fill out allowing her to video a lesson with students in the
video. This is an Oregon State
requirement for all new teachers. If you have not sent the form back with your
child, please check backpacks. The more
permission slips we receive, the easier this requirement will be for her to
accomplish. Thank you for your help with
this.
We have some very exciting events this month. Friday, February 14th is our
Valentine celebration. Students are not
required to bring Valentine cards. If
you do choose to send Valentine cards, please have one card for every student.
This will prevent hurt feelings. At the
end of this letter is a current class list.
Also, if would like to send in a special snack or host a craft for our
class, we will be celebrating from 12:00 – 1:00, Friday afternoon. Please email me if you are willing to help.
Thursday, February 20th is our 100th day
of school. This is a very fun day in
second grade. Last week students brought
home a homework assignment. Each child
will bring in a collection of 100 things.
find something you have 100 of that can be carried to school easily to
share with the class. For example, toy
cars, popcorn kernels, baseball cards, noodles, pennies, stickers, etc.… Collections
can be displayed on poster board. Try to be unique! If you want poster board to display your
collection, let me know and I will give you one. Use your wonderful
imaginations!! Please bring your collection of 100 by Wednesday, February 19th.
Report cards are coming home on Monday, February 10th. I am asking students NOT to open the
envelopes before a parent is with them.
The last thing we need is 2nd grade students comparing report
cards. Please emphasize this rule with
your child.
Don’t forget, Friday is library day so bring those books
back in the morning. It is never fun to
go to the library and not get to check out a book. Thank you for your help.
As always, if you want to contact me, email works
great! dubois_d@4j.lane.edu
