Week of Nov. 15 - 19, 2021

Good morning everyone,

I hope you are all staying busy with your RazKids reading and Mathletics programs - these are to help support our learning in both reading and math skills.  Please keep working on these as our reading levels do move up (Literacy Centers work at school) and so should the reading levels/letters in your RazKids reading.  Also, for Mathletics - we should all be working on our Numbers to 100 as the other sections should now be completed.  Thank you to all the families who continue to work on these in order to strengthen our reading and math skills!  You are doing a FANTASTIC job on these and I thank you for your hard work =;)

Please Note - this upcoming week is a short week due to our PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCES on Thursday evening and then on Friday morning.  I hope you are able to join us to hear about all the great work your child is doing and to discuss areas to work on.  We all have things to improve on and I thank you for trying your very best in all things you do!  Keep up the great work and always believe in yourselves, Grade 2 students =;)
