In second grade we do an ABC countdown the last 26 days of school. There are a few days that we need parent help for the activity. Therefore I am posting the different activities so that you can help your child when needed. Such as, Monday, April 24th is baby picture day so your child may bring a baby picture of themselves.
The end of the year is almost here! We are going to count down the last 26 days by celebrating a letter of the alphabet each day. Participation in these extra activities will be based on student behavior in class. The countdown will start on Friday, April 22nd. Let’s make the rest of our 2nd Grade the Best Year Ever!
