Science-Matter and Energy Social Studies- All About Me and The Constitution Health- Germs and Stranger Danger Welcome back to school! I am so excited for my class of 2nd graders!! In their daily binder there are several important papers for you to read. Please look at all of the information on each one. There is a letter from me in a plastic sleeve that tells you a little bit about myself and my classroom. There is another letter that talks about academic expectations. I will be using the app Remind to communicate important information to you over the course of the year. I have provided instructions and the code to join my class in your child’s binder. I also have a webpage on the school’s website. I will upload my newsletters, spelling, and vocabulary weekly. If any of these documents are ever lost from the binder, you can find new copies there. I will also post fun updates and pictures of what is going on in our classroom. I have listed the direct link to my webpage below. This will stay at the bottom of my newsletter every week. http://es.elkhartisd.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=537244&type=u I am looking forward to having a wonderful and successful year.
