Classroom News: ECO, Timelines, and Lego Robotics

Reminders and Upcoming Events:

Students do not need to bring mud boots in for recess, but it would be great for them to have a pair of outside shoes.  This helps to keep our hallways and classroom floor clean!

ECO Field Trip:  Thursday, May 12 (rain date to be determined). Please help your child come prepared for the morning outside.  Students should wear shoes that can get muddy or wet.  They should bring a backpack with snack, lunch, and a water bottle.  It would be great if students can put on sunscreen right before coming to school and/or bring some to apply there.  Also, students may want bug spray.  It would be helpful for students to have an extra change of clothes in case they get muddy.  (We will not be swimming, but we may get a bit wet or muddy.)

Thank you to all of the chaperones who have volunteered to join us for the day.  We may need a few booster seats for the short drive.  Please email (lgiammusso@u32.org) or send in a note if your child could bring one in or if you are driving and you can provide one or more booster seats. 

Writing Celebration, Art Show, and Spring Concert:  Wednesday, May 20th 

        Writing Celebration and Art Show:  5:00- 6:30

        EMES Spring Concert:  6:30 (Second graders are not performing, but are welcome to watch
               the chorus and band performances.)

The writing celebration is a great time for your child to share writing pieces from our second grade year together.  There will be several "published" final drafts, as well as current drafts that we are working on during our writing workshop.

Hope to see you there!

Here are some photos from our week.  Thanks to Mrs. DeForge for the ECO photos!

Students did a great job creating and presenting their personal timelines to the class!  It was fun to learn about the important events in each others' lives.
