Customs/Holidays Quilt Project 

In your child's folder today, they are receiving a quilt square to complete as a home project. Please read the attached letter for a guide and return the completed quilt squares by December 1st. This is a wonderful opportunity to chat with your child about the holidays/customs you celebrate as a family!! Your child will then present their square to the class. We hope you enjoy this project!

 2^nd Grade Parents! 

The kids are doing so well in phonics and growing with their spelling pattern knowledge this year. To help with their application in writing, our 2^nd grade team has decided to start doing some "Spelling Checks" each Friday based on the spelling/phonics rules we are learning that week. We will send out the spelling word lists in newsletters the week before and a paper copy in take home folders on Monday. Please help your child practice writing and spelling these words at home. These checks are not being taken for a grade, but will help us plan for small groups in phonics. 

Please look for the first word list in this week's newsletter- paper copy will come home Monday! 

Let us know if you have any questions! 🙂
