We had the MOST AMAZING year! So thankful to have taught this group a second time. Thanks for all of the support and understanding as I branched out of Kindergarten for the first time.
I love you all and hope you have the best summer making memories together!

Hello Howe Families! Just a few reminders about the summer school program….
Howe Discovery program begins on Monday, June 23rd. Hours are 8:20am-3:20 pm.
Before care tutoring begins at 8 am and your child must be registered. All students begin with breakfast at 8:20 am.
After school care is 3:20- 4pm. (Your child must also be signed up for this tutoring session to stay.)
All Montessori students will be dropped off and picked up at Door 18.
Extended school year families will do their normal routine with bussing.
Students should come with water bottles and a snack. If you do not want school breakfast and lunch please pack. The choices will NOT be posted daily like during the school year.
If you are not subscribed to the Howe school blog please do that before summer school starts. That is how updates will be shared about the summer program! Click on the link below. On the right side of the screen type in your email under the “Sign Up for Howe e-news” box. Then all posts will be emailed to you!

Please let the office know if you have any questions!
Some scheduling has been switched around! I will have many students absent Friday. (Happy Eid to those who are celebrating!) So tomorrow we will finish sending everything home and finally open our– “do not open until the last day of second grade” surprise!
If you would like your child’s blue 2nd grade shirt signed please send in tomorrow and we will sign those in the morning and send back home that afternoon.
Nothing should be coming to school but needs- backpack, planner, folder, and waters/snacks. We do not need any extra items for the rest of the week.
I can NOT believe time has flown so much! If your child is coming to summer school please make sure you are subscribed to the school blog! That is how information will be getting out for that program.
*****Wear 2nd grade shirt!!!! (or kinder faces t-shirts if you didn’t buy one).
*Towel
*2 waters labeled with numbers (frozen would be best if possible)
*Shoes will get wet and must stay on for fire truck and after ….. so plan accordingly!
*Backpack, planner, folder
Hard to believe we are officially down to ONE WEEK! It is crazy how fast this school year went. They worked so hard and I am so proud of them! They finished all Benchmark units, Eureka squared math lessons, AND social studies units. For amplify we finished more chapters/units than most schools so that was a positive! I am looking forward to doing some “fun activities” next week.
Monday will be a normal school day.
Tuesday is field day so we have stuff planned all day long. Please send in disposable water bottles for your child labeled with their number on the cap! We are moving around outside between the stations and I don’t want to have to worry about losing real water bottles. Your child also needs a TOWEL for the afternoon fire truck. We will be going to the playground after and no one will be allowed back in the building. If you would like to take your child early that is fine! I will be on the playground and you can check them out with me.
Wednesday is normal day.
Thursday is picnic day. Pack them a special lunch (hot lunch will still be available if you want that)
On Friday we have just a half day of school. If your child will not be attending that day please let me know so I can make sure all of their stuff goes home before then!
Looking forward to the fun next week!
Have a great weekend!

Hello Families! What a busy week! I am so excited that we have officially finished Iready, park presentations and just have a few things left to do before we start wrapping up this school year!
Coming home today are the park presentation grades. We did NOT do a spelling test today. I really just wanted them to be practicing them for the week. We will have a test next week on Week 2s words though!
Please sign up for field day if you are able to help! It is on Tuesday, June 3rd (This is NOT an early release day!) https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0B4AA8AE2CAAF58-56910567-howe#
Have a great weekend!
These weeks are flying by and I can not believe we have only 20 days of school left!
We are working to finish up Iready reading, will do Iready math next Tuesday, then have reading level assessment for the district and math/ela common assessments. So many things with not a lot of time it feels like!
All scores will be coming home after the testing period ends and the whole staff can send them home. So far they are making AMAZING growth and I am SO PROUD of them! <3
Next week is a normal calendar week with early release on Tuesday and Park presentations on Wednesday from 230-3 pm.
Have a great weekend and Happy Mothers Day to all of you! <3
Tomorrow morning we are taking the Iready reading assessment. Please make sure your child goes to bed early and eats a good breakfast before school!
Dioramas will stay in our classroom until we present next Wednesday! They all did such a great job!
Fifth grade is having a fundraiser at our project presentations in the cafeteria that day. Please sign up if you can donate items for them to sell. These sales are going for swag bags and end of the year celebrations for them.

Note that the food should not be sent until at least Tuesday the 13th!
They will be coming home today!
We will be signing them in June… So just know I will ask for them back around memorial day so they can all sign each others shirts.
***If you didn’t purchase one you can get a plain, blank shirt from Michaels or Amazon and the students can sign that for your child.
