Please take a minute to fill out the new survey. I just want to make sure that I am providing the right amount and type of resources for you in the most convenient format.
Office hours this week will be daily between 9-11am and 6-7pm. I will be readily available at those times. If you need anything, I am always available! I may not get back to you immediately, but I want to try and be as prompt as possible answering your questions addressing your needs. If you are experiencing technical problems that prevent you from being able to complete the online assignments, try to read and practice math facts, and let me know! Thanks! If you didn't get a chance to listen to my read aloud, here it is again. It is "We Are In A Book" by Mo Willems! I hope you like it! https://www.loom.com/share/6e694d8063f8493e966ce18fcf1fcdf3 Today's question... If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? I think I could eat pizza everyday. It is easy enough to change the toppings so the flavors change. Also, it has most of the food groups in it, so it's almost healthy! I haven't heard back from all parents, so here it is again... PARENTS ONLY: Since school is not resuming until May, I would like to know if you want the chance to get library books, workbooks(I mainly want students to have the tools they are accustomed to for writing and daily math review), water bottles, and other personal items from the school? I can bag everything up and label it, and schedule a pick up time that's convenient for you. Feel free to email your response or message me on Dojo. Let me know yes or no; and if yes, then what times are convenient for you to do a pick up. Thanks for your help and support during these crazy times! Let me know if there is ANYTHING I can do to make things easier on you. On Wednesdays, we usually have PE with Mrs. Shanks. Mrs. Cherry has given me some ideas for PE that I am sharing here for you. Also, don't forget about GoNoodle...they get you moving too! There's a link below! All of the activities should be approved by parents before beginning!
Also, on Wednesdays we usually have Computers with Mrs. Thueson. Please visit the Computers class website for the activities she has planned for 2nd grade this week.
