SECOND GRADE GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS |
- Assignment books should be initialed each night.
|
- If you are aware that your child will be missing a day for school due to a planned trip or activity outside of school breaks, please notify me so I can schedule tests prior to his/her absence.
- 3 or more consecutive absences require a doctor's note.
|
- The classroom doors open at 7:50 to prepare for the day and unpack any home materials. The first school bell rings at 8:05 and rings again at 8:15, which is the beginning of the school day. Your child is working on morning work upon entering the classroom.
- Tardiness is distracting and often sets an idea of feeling behind. Please pack all materials the night before, including a lunch, so morning routines are efficient. Thank you for continuing this practice of creating Responsible Citizens!
|
- Please pack a snack in addition to your child's lunches. Our snack box is for those without any morning snack. Thank you!
- If your child has Better Lunch, please provide a snack.
|
- Weekly Take Home folders are to be looked at and reviewed. Please remove all the previous work to return the folder the next day.
|
- Any signed note that I send home with your child, ie Uniform Notices, Parent Notifications, Tardy Notices, must be signed and returned the next day.
|
- Please designate an area for your child's workspace at home. Discuss printing efforts and coloring efforts as any work messy or incomplete will be redone at recess.
