Dear Parents,
It has been my pleasure to teach your children this year. They were a great class. They worked hard and made so much progress this year. They are ready for third grade!
It has also been my pleasure to get to know each and every one of you. I appreciate your kind words, the work you did with your children, the late night reading, studying spelling words, and the help and support you gave me throughout the year.
I wish each of you a great summer and I will give you a list of activities you can do over the summer:
Language Arts: Visit our library each Monday. There will be book check out, science experiments, math games, and a drawing for books that have been read by your child.
Writing: Practice common core activities: Writing letters, practice using descriptive words, write opinion papers, or keep a journal. Also, try and read some nonfiction books and write “Wow facts” in a journal. Your kids will know what “Wow facts” are.
Math: Visit these sites:
