Homework set up

Dear parents and students,

  We apologize for so many changes to our homework set up this year. With the new 50/50 schedule we are trying to find what will work best for teachers and students. Thank you for the feedback we have received and all the support you are giving at home. Here is a sample of what the latest version of student homework notebooks looks like. We think this will work for all of us!

Parent Promise

Classroom pets can visit your home

Ms. Cynthia's classroom pets are ready to go home with 2C and 3C for one night and play a math game with you, and mom or dad for $1.00. 

All the money we save will be used to buy books for our classroom. 

                                   

                   

Guess Who?

Thank you to all the parents who made it to Academic Night. 25 families in all!  Sra. Silvia and I appreciate all you support. Students are going to be surprised when they see your response to their guess who writing.

They will also be motivated when they see your promise. 

Academic Choice

After lots of practice, modeling, reminding and redirecting 2nd graders were able to make some academic choices independently this week! Four different activities were going on all at once and students knew exactly what to do! I'm very proud of my new 2nd graders!

                          

                         

                          

Our Class Promise

This week I asked students to think of ways that they would be respectful, responsible and dedicated this year, from their ideas we created Our Class Promise. The class promise is now part of our daily morning meeting. We repeat it everyday in order to remind us what we promised each other.                                         .                           

                            

                           

Reporting

Dear Parents, 

Today the students and I discussed what to do if they see others breaking the rules. We talked about how our class promise says "help classmates when they need it" which means reporting if someone is being treated unkindly. We also talked about the kind of incidents they need to tell me or another adult about--and the ones they can handle on their own or let go.
