  • Welcome to Second Grade!

     

    Second grade is such an exciting time for your child. My job is to help your child become the best that she or he can be. We will achieve this through strengthening his or her independent work skills but there will still be lots of time for students to collaborate to learn. Building communication and social skills are also very important in second grade.The main focus of second grade curriculum is language arts and math. Throughout the year we will also complete several different social studies and science units on topics like geography, United States history, community, animals, natural resources, force and motion, and weather. Let's make it a great year!

    Important information about our classroom:

     

    • Important papers will come home in your child's take home folder. Please check this folder, remove "leave at home" papers each night, and return it to school the next day. 

    School supplies your child will need for second grade:

    • A durable folder to use as a take home folder. We will label this the first day of school. Many students like to choose their own folder which is why I ask that families provide this item.
    • A pencil box to stay at school to store their pencils, crayons, scissors, etc.
    • A backpack to help transport items to and from school.
    • Headphones
    • If you choose to purchase extra school supplies please stick to traditional pencils (no mechanical pencils please). Please keep in mind that students do not have a lot of extra room for extra supplies. 
    • Students may bring their own daily snack and water bottle.
