Week Number Four!

Last week we practiced place value but also had a little fun building!

School and Second Grade Information:

Breakfast begins at 7:15 and closes promptly at 7:45.  Anyone who comes at or after that time will not be able to eat breakfast.

Fridays are designated college days.   Your child may wear a college t-shirt or colors on that day.  We want to encourage them to go to college even in the Second Grade!

College Tidbit of the Week:  In the United States, there is little difference between the terms “college” and “university”.  However, the term “college” in other countries, such as Canada, refers to a junior college or trade college, whereas a “university” is larger, more research focused, and usually contains multiple colleges.

We will be ordering the t-shirts as soon as the printer gets back to us.  There will be an order form sent home so you can see what the shirts will look like and choose the size for your child.  You will be able to order a shirt for yourself if you'd like.  If you haven't already please send in the shirt money.
