We are going to have lots of fun this year in 2nd Grade!

Let’s make this easy peasy and put all the treats we will be eating and learning with into one form. I will post on our BLOG when we are consuming foods from the list. Some of these may change or be added but I will notify you. If you child has allergies or any other accommodations, please email. You are always welcome to provide an alternative option for your child. Please fill out the form HERE.

Mrs. Clark’s Class Supply List I BUY ALL THE SUPPLIES AND HAVE THEM READY FOR THE KIDS THE FIRST DAY 😉

I know how busy this time of year is and I want to help make it easier. I am asking guardians to pay a $30 supply donation to cover each student’s supplies. This way I can get all the needed supplies purchased and labeled before students come back to school. You can donate at Q1 during Back to School Night (August 19) or online here: ONLINE PAYMENTS 

When making a payment for class supplies, pick the category “Donations-Class Supplies”, then select Clark in the drop down menu. If you would rather purchase the same items yourself, please send me an email prior to school beginning.

Additionally, students will need to bring the following items:

Headphones/earbuds-labeled with their name. Guardians will be responsible to replace broken/damaged headphones/earbuds throughout the year.

Small bag if needed-A small bag used for personal items they need at school. Kids that go home with someone else and need additional things for after school, can bring a bag/backpack.

Small water bottle-Send a small water bottle (labeled) that they can have with them throughout the day.

NO backpacks. We are a technology school, so we rarely send any papers home. ONLY lunch bags are needed if they are bringing a lunch from home. I will provide a bag/book sleeve that will be used to transfer library books, or worksheets home once a week.

Lanyards are optional, I will provide them with a shirt clip. NOTE: they cannot have the kind of lanyard that has an elastic pull feature.

I will purchased the following items for your child with the class donation:

• Crayons and additional art supplies
• Plastic plain folders with metal paper holders and paper pockets.
• Spiral notebooks/composition notebooks-Wide ruled
• Scissors, pencils, erasers, and glue sticks
• Whiteboards with an eraser
• (3) Highlighters, Expo markers (10-12), and small black Sharpie markers (2)
• Party supplies, birthday prizes, rewards/prize bin supplies
• STEM/Science lab materials
• Rendezvous sign supplies
• Math tools/manipulatives and flashcards
• Mother’s Day/Father’s Day gift supplies
• Art projects supplies
• Christmas and other holiday projects/gifts
• Anti-bacterial wipes, hand sanitizer, tissues, paper towels, and bandaids

NOTICE: THE ITEMS ON THIS LIST WILL BE USED DURING THE REGULAR SCHOOL DAY.  THEY WILL BE BOUGHT USING CLASSROOM DONATIONS. THEY MAY ALSO BE BROUGHT FROM HOME ON A VOLUNTARY BASIS, OTHERWISE, THEY WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE SCHOOL.

THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME TEACH YOUR HUMANS. I LOVED IT! Next year, I will be moving to 2nd grade. Finger crossed I get some siblings. Enjoy your SUMMER 😉 Thank you for all your support this year.

Your child has access to all of their Quest student accounts this Summer. Their iREADY access QR was sent home with their grades. They also have access to their REFLEX and FRAX accounts. Keeping these skills, by spending a little time a week, will help them as they move onto 5th grade.

• May 16: Finishing STATE MATH TEST. If you child was absent, they will attend a makeup session.
• May 13-17: BFG week, your child may bring in a GIANT thing to display (optional)

• May 24: Last day of school-Early out 1:10pm
• May 27: Memorial Day

Students will begin taking end of the year assessments the next few weeks. A few things that will help the students during this week:
1- Sleep 
2- A nutritious breakfast
3- An “I can do it” attitude– encourage them to do their best. When they get home, ask them about their day. Celebrate their efforts.

I really appreciate your help with this! It makes a big difference when you child is well rested and not hungry for testing.

KEEP UP THE READING!!! This link has a 4th Grade list of books recommended from the Weber County Library. If you child is not on a fourth grade lexile, please read these books with them 🙂
