Sanders's Shout Outs

2nd GRADE ORIENTATION

PARENT ORIENTATION for K-2 will be held this Tuesday, August 19th immediately following the 6:30 PTA meeting.  Please plan on attending to hear all about our curriculum, procedures, and the new report card.  This is a meeting for parents, so we respectfully ask that the children be kept at home.  HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

We had a wonderful first week at school!  It has been a pleasure getting to know your child.  We spent much of the week getting to know each other, our classmates, learn the rules at GM, and settle into life in 2nd grade.  It has been very smooth!  We did several math assessments, did a 7 minute test in addition and subtraction, wrote about our summer, and did a baseline Exemplar in math.  I think that this will be a fantastic year!

WELCOME BACK!

It was so nice to meet all of you at Sneak A Peek!  We are off to a wonderful beginning! 

Parents, please fill out all pertinent paperwork and return them to school with you child sometime this week.  Your child will have an official "HOME FOLDER" that you can use for any forms that need to be brought back to school.  An assignment sheet will be in one pocket showing the homework for the week.  On Tuesday, part of the homework is to find a picture of your child.  We will be using this for an "About Me" poster, so the photo might be a little worn before it comes home again.  Keep that in mind when you select a photo to send.

Open House for K-2 will be held on Tuesday, August 19th, immediately following the PTA meeting.  I will go over procedures, curriculum, and the new report cards.  Please try to attend.  Should you be unable to come, I will send all information home with your child on the following Wednesday. 

If you've had a very busy weekend and your child could not complete the "Sun" homework assignment for tomorrow, please have them turn it in any day this week.  Thanks for your help with this!

I look forward to a great year with you!
