I am looking forward to working with you and your child in second grade. It will be a great year of learning, growth and high achievement.
I strongly believe in the importance of including the family in all aspects of your child's educational programs and I enthusiastically encourage and welcome your involvement and partnership.
You can expect me to provide for your child:
1. A safe and structured learning environment
2. High expectations for learning and behavior
3. A classroom that values independence and cooperation among children and adults
4. A program that will be adapted to meet his/her needs through the implementation of effective teaching techniques
5. A program that will encourage your child to express him/herself through various forms of expression
I expect that your child will:
1. Do his/her work to the best of his/her ability
2. Behave in a respectful and cooperative manner toward classmates and adults
3. Exemplify the Lower Division Motto and come to school with a positive attitude
4. Return completed homework and assignments on the day that it is due
5. Come to school on time
During the week, your child will also see the following teachers:
Anna Baralt - Instructional Technology - Tuesday from 9:15-10:00
Dotti Smay - Library - Tuesday at 12:10 (every other week)
Bethsabe Bockman-Pedersen - Spanish - Monday and Wednesday from 9:10-9:40
Valerie Diaz Leroy - Music - Thursday at 12:00
Amy Pope, Woodward Every, Jeffrey Deidrich - P.E. - Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday at 10:45
Sue Rowe - Art - Monday at 12:00
Homework is assigned Monday through Thursday. It should take approximately 15 minutes or so to complete, varying somewhat with each child's personal work habits. In addition, I encourage each student to read for at least 20 minutes.
Important Date: Back to School Night - August 24th at 7pm (Janet Root Theater).
Again, welcome to Second Grade! I look forward to working with you this school year. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
