What’s Happening This Week??

Hello!

We have lots of things coming up this week.  The First thing is

Quest will be participating in the Besst Realty Canned Food Drive from October 1st to October 19th. This is a great way to help families in our community. Last year, we collected and donated over 22,000 items. You can donate any canned food, travel hygiene items, full size hygiene items, toothbrushes, and floss. Thank you for your help! Remind your child to bring their canned items to our classroom first so we can count them.

Wednesday is our Ice Cream Party for doing an outstanding job of selling cookie dough.  The permission slip for this party is further down my blog.  Please make sure you have submitted yours child’s permission slip. I would hate to have to tell your child that they don’t get to have ice-cream.  I have received 17 permission slips out of 25.

On Thursday, all 2nd Graders will have their hearing screened.  Please see the flyer that went home earlier in the week.

We will be working on lots of new things this week.  We will continue working on finding the key details in our reading, learning how characters respond to events in the stories, and we will continue working on the story structure.  In writing, we will begin our rough draft of our How-To narrative.  We will work on nouns, commas in series, short o/long o, blends, and we will be starting week 2 of our animal unit.  This is a review week in math.  We will be going over everything we have learned in Unit 1 to make sure that are ready to start Unit 2 after fall break.

Just a reminder, that if your child is absent frequently, they may be falling behind the rest of the class.  I understand about doctor’s appointments etc.  but please make sure that they are here on time as much as possible.  

If you have any questions please let me know.  Parent/Teacher Conferences will be on October 23rd and 25th.  Sign up information will be sent out soon.

Have a great week!  
Ms. Blok
