Back to School Night

Back to School Night was a big success!  Thank you parents and family members for coming out.  If you didn't make it or need a refresher, these are the bullet points we discussed! 

*Homework:  Book Bags will be the only homework for second graders.  Please be sure your child reads at least 20 minutes daily! (See procedure for book bags below on Sept. 18th post. 

*Stickers on completed work - If it has a sticker keep or recycle.  Incomplete work without a sticker should be returned to school once the work has been completed.

* BEST way to reach me is by email: jschultz@wsesu.org
I rarely have time to get to the phone to return calls.  AVOID trying to catch me in the classroom before school.  That is my preparation time I need to get geared up for the day. It is important to respect this so I can bring my "A game" for your children!

Before school routine:  Children may drop off their backpacks outside the classroom door prior to having breakfast or heading outside to the playground.

Rewards – Class rewards (marbles in the jar) and dojo rewards are positive reinforcements used in the classroom as a classroom management system.

Birthday treats are welcome but PLEASE remember NO TREE NUTS are allowed in the room due to allergies.  ALSO PLEASE email me in advance so we can plan ahead for the treats.  Healthy snack is provided for the children each morning.

Changes in afterschool plans – after 12:30 PM leave a message with the office or on voice mail.

Attendance is important but keep ill children home.  Please be sure to get your child to school on time as we have important morning work and meeting activities that you don’t want your child to miss!

Math practice at home – 10 facts, doubles, addition and subtraction within 20 fluently, coins- names and values, clocks to the ½ hour.

Chapter Books We Read - Charlie and Choc. Factory, Because of Winn Dixie, Harry Potter and Sorcerer Stone, Poppy, Granny Torelli Makes Soup
