Second Grade News

October 29-November 2
This is a peek at what we will be working in this week:
Reading:  These are our reading vocabulary words for the week:
almost           another         around           food
under             wheel             bottle             cage
follow            raccoon         content          scurries
 A good way to help your child practice is to put this list in a handy spot and have your child practice reading through the words a couple of times each day.
This week we will be comparing and contrasting fiction and non-fiction stories about mice.
Spelling:  Your child’s spelling list is stapled to this letter.
Library:   We return to the library on Monday.  Please make sure all books are returned so that more may be checked out.
Parent/Teacher Conferences:   These will be on November 8 and November 13 from 4pm-7pm.  Please mark your calendar.  Your child’s conference time will be sent home soon.
Halloween:   Our festivities will be in the afternoon.  The boys and girls do not wear their costumes to school.  We will put them on at about 12:30 and have our parade at 1:00.  If the weather permits, we will parade downtown and then go through the fourth grade wax museum.  Please make sure your child brings his/her costume in a sack labeled with your child’s name.
Have a great weekend!
