Important Announcements:
*Report cards are available
online starting today!
*A special thank you to Mrs.
Hamm for organizing our Fall Party today!
I would also like to thank the parents that were able to donate items or
their time to volunteer at the party and to make our party successful! Thank you so much!
*I sent home a reading
calendar for your child to complete over Fall Break. If your child reads, completes the reading
calendar, and returns it to school on Monday, October 27, 2014, he/she will be
invited to a special neon dance party.
Happy reading!
*Our annual Chick-Fil-A dine
to donate will take place on Wednesday, October 29th at the
Chick-Fil-A in Avon. If you eat at this
Chick-Fil-A location between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m., and mention
our school’s name, we will receive 20% of the profits! Also, between the hours of 5:00 – 8:00 p.m.,
staff members will be there in costumes.
Come during those hours, and wear your costumes, too!
*Mrs. Wood’s class is
celebrating Socktober and is collecting new socks of any size to be donated to
homeless shelters. If you are interested
in helping out, you can send in any sock donation, and we will make sure it
gets to Mrs. Wood.
*Brownsburg Community School
Corporation is hosting an EveryDay Math Night for second grade parents on
Wednesday, November 12th at White Lick Elementary from 6:30 – 7:30
p.m. This evening is designed to help
you have a greater understanding of math achievement and the math progression
in our corporation, ways to help your child with homework, and fun and easy
math games that you can play at home with your child. I think this evening will be incredibly
beneficial for you so mark your calendars and plan on attending!
*Continue to work on addition
and subtraction math facts. Make sure to
use those fact triangles that were sent home, or you can practice for free
online at www.xtramath.org. Let me know if
you need the log-in information sent home again.
*If anyone is able to come in
and volunteer after Fall Break, send me an e-mail and let me know what day and
time works best for you! Thanks!
*I believe in building relationships with the children both
inside my classroom and outside the classroom.
If your child participates in any extracurricular activities (sports,
dance, theater, etc.), or has any other events that he/she would like to invite
me to, please let me know, and I will do my best to come!
