First Week, Class Contract, & Planners

First Week
We had a great first week. Thank you very much for all of the donations of school supplies. We are set for a while. SPS families are the most generous families that I've ever encountered. 

Class Contract
We worked for several days to complete our class contract. It is below. I think it turned out very well and look forward to working, learning, and growing with them.

Planners
Planners will be going home every day beginning Monday, September 14th. Please check your child's planner every night. We will note what we're doing each day as well as when homework is due and any color changes.

I look forward to having a great year!

We are all very excited to start the 2015-2016 school year! Your 2nd Grade Team is as follows: Mrs. Minchin, Mrs. Mueller, Mrs. Korte, Mr. Sheldon & Ms. Ingall.


Popsicles on the Playground
We had a great time at our Popsicles on the Playground event. It was a very warm evening and the kids had fun reconnecting.

School Supplies
Following is a copy of the school supply list that went home during the last week of school in June. I thought I would put it here as well.

I'm looking forward to a great year and cannot wait to see you all soon!

NEW YEAR - NEW FORMAT 2015-2016

Hi there. I wanted to let subscribers know that as we head into the new school year, I will be changing the format. In addition, the audience will change over to a new group of 2nd graders.

I will be updating the blog very soon. You are more than welcome to stay on as a subscriber, but you can also unsubscribe as your kiddos head into the next year.

I wish you all the best as we head into the new school year!

Music Concert, Division, State Fair & Little Panthers

What a busy week. Our music concert was a success. The students sounded amazing! All week we've been working on division. 

Friday was very busy: we used skittles as manipulatives to see which numbers can be evening divided by 2 and 3, we visited 4th Grade's State Fair and many of us took part in the Little Panther's basketball game.
