Harvest

Happy Fall! The second grade team is looking forward to seeing all of you on October 25th. The children are getting excited about our harvest supper. We are hoping for a really good turn out! We will have good food, students work on display and a video slide show of what we have been working on so far this year, especially our visit to the farm. Please call Mrs. Wagnor and let her know you will be coming and what you will be bringing. Our classroom is in charge of salads, veggies, and appetizers. I think we already have enough bread items. Enjoy this beautiful New England fall weekend and see you all next Wednesday night!

Also on the evening of October 25th we will be having a Harvest Supper from 5:30-7 PM. Please save these dates. My classroom will be bring salads, veggies, and breads. Please be thinking of a couple of choices so when our room mothers call you will have an idea of what you might want to bring. More information will be coming home soon.

Open House

We have had a great week in school! Our insects have changed and it has been very exciting. We are moving along in all areas. We have finally finished the reading tests! I am looking forward to meeting everyone at Open House. Please be sure to sign up for a conference and volunteer opportunities. The sheets will be on the back table. Have a great weekend and I'll see you on Tuesday.

Information You May Need!

We are moving right along in second grade! All the students seem to have settled in. On Monday, you may have noticed, I sent the homework for the week home. This helps some families with their schedules. In fall and spring there are many sports and other activities that take place after school and I try to be as flexible as possible to accommodate the needs of families. It is the intention that students do the nightly assignments and turn them in daily but if need be there is flexibility!
Reading folders will be coming soon. The reading should be about 20 minutes and fairly easy for the student to read. The purpose is to increase fluency. If it is to easy/hard, please let me know and I will adjust their program. Also the reading is one piece of the homework they must complete each night because it needs your signature. The folder comes back to school and it is recorded and a new book/chapter assigned.
I am in need of some classroom volunteers. If you have the time, let me know. I have also created an e-mail list so if you did not get an e-mail from me, it is probably because I don't have your e-mail. Please send me one through the school web site.
If you would like to help our classroom but you can't volunteer, there is a wish list on my home page. Also disinfecting wipes, kleenex and zip lock bags with the zippers would be appreciated. Don't hesitate to e-mail or call if you have any questions.

Have a great day!

What a wonderful week!

Dear Parents,

What a great week with your children. We did a lot of learning, begining of the year "stuff" and fun too. We are settling into the second grade routine, learning names and new faces. Welcome everyone! Have a safe and happy weekend.

Oh My Gosh!!!

The end of the year is coming and so much more to do and finish. We had a wonderful time on the field trip yesterday. It is very informative for the students and I always learn something new. I saw lots of cameras taking pictures....Any pictures you may have of the year would be greatly appreciated. You can e-mail them, put them on a disk or send hard copies. We are in the process of making a memory book for the year.
I like to take this last chance to wish all my military families all the best in your move and in your new home. You all give a lot for all of us and I want you to know how I personally appreciate all the sacrifices you make as families.
To all my second grade parents, thank you for trusting me with your children. They have grown and learned so much this year and are ready to move on to third grade. Likewise with each group of second graders I learn too!
Have a wonderful summer and I hope those of you still in Jamestown will stop in to see me once in awhile.
All my best,
Mrs. Goodyear
