Snack TIme!

I would like for each  student to bring in about 4-5 cups of their favorite snack.  We will be making a big batch of snack mix to share with everyone during our daily snack time. This way students don't have to worry about bringing a snack everyday.   Some good ideas are cereal, pretzels, m & m's, cheetos, cheese crackers, goldfish, ect.  Please send by Tuesday, January 22.  Thanks so much for your help.

Martin Luther King Jr.

Connor, Sky, Quentin, and Katlynn practice drawing Martin Luther King Jr. on the whiteboard this morning. 

Daily 5

Today during Daily 5 Owen and Ryan listened to our story Mr. Tanen's Tie Trouble on the I-Pad.  This is just one of the ways we use the I-Pads and I-Pods in our classroom.

Silly Pictures

 During our Christmas party today we took some time out to take some silly pictures with the props left over from The Polar Express Night!  I hope that everyone has a Merry Christmas and I will see you in 2013! 

Pajama Day!

On Friday morning we will be watching Polar Express to kick off Polar Express Night that is on Saturday.  Students can wear pajamas to school that day.  If they want to wear slippers I would send other shoes so they can change before going outside for recess.

2nd Grade Mails Santa Letters

On Friday our class walked down to the post office to mail our letters to Santa.  The students were all very excited to get their letters sent off for the North Pole. 

Christmas Party

On December 19th we will be having our classroom party.  If you would like to send treats please let me know!  We will also be doing a gift exchange.  A boy needs to bring a gift for a boy and a girl needs to bring a gift for a girl.  Please have them wrapped.  On the tag you need to write From: (your child) To: boy or  To: girl  If you cannot buy a gift please let me know as soon as possible and I can take care of it for you.  Thanks so much!
