🎃OCTOBER 30th Activities & PJ Day
On Friday, October 30th, we will be doing several fun activities in class! It is also pajama day (if your student does not participate in PJ Day, they do need to be in dress code). 

Our activities will include:

• Inference Detective: The Case of the Missing Candy Corn (a DumDum® will be handed out as a prize)

• Bat measuring with candy corns 

• Candy corn science experiment (which dissolves the candy best: vinegar, water, or oil)

• Math mystery picture 

• Making monsters out of Play-Doh 

• Pumpkin directed draw 

• If there is time, we will watch "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" (rated G TV movie)

⚠️ Please let your teacher know if there are any concerns about your child participating in these activities. Please let her know if your child cannot have DumDum® sucker or candy corn.
 

​📚HOMEWORK AND BEHAVIOR CALENDAR
Homework expectations are as follows:

• Read for 20 minutes and fill out the Reading Log 

• Initial Behavior Chart

• Study the spelling words (you can find them HERE)

• It is NOT required, but we encourage students to practice their math facts at home.

  • XTRA Math is a great website for this (login information can be found on the "Username and Password" page at the back of their blue homework folder)

 🌟COMMUNITY SERVICE
All 2nd graders need to complete 6–8 hours of community service by the end of April. Start brainstorming great ways to serve the community where you live or go to school! We’re sharing this now so you don't miss out on any early community service opportunities.
