Tomorrow is our Student of the Month Assembly in the Community Center at 8:05. Mom and Dad, please join us if you can to see our second grade Student of the Month.

2. One activity from your Family Fun Wheel
3. Spelling x2

       -Review words to learn (Complete with Mom or Dad's help and practice spelling these words you missed or the challenge marsupial words. You do not have to return this to school.)
4. Start studying for your Social Studies test that is coming up on Monday.  You should know:

  •  the vocabulary words we have been studying (your little cards you took home today),

  • the three main countries in North America, 
  • directions,
