Dearest Wonderful 2nd Grade Parents and Guardians,
Hoping that you had a great weekend with family and friends! Welcome back to a new week of school. You will find some announcements and attachments below.
1. Homework Time: To help me plan a reasonable amount of HW, I wanted to get an idea of how long your child spends doing HW. Please reply by letting me know if it’s too much and how long they are spending to complete HW each night. Thank you!
2. Math HW and Math Test: Tonight’s and tomorrow’s Math HW is to help prepare them for our Math Test on Wednesday. They had received a mock Chapter 1 test in their folders today. They are asked to do the odd numbers today and even numbers tomorrow.
3. ST Math Goals: ST Math is a wonderful program that we have as part of our Math curriculum! It is 10% of our Math grade and students are expected to reach 33% completion by November 16th, the end of our 1st Trimester. To keep at a steady paste, a goal they should meet by the end of this week is 14% completion. I have attached a pdf that shows you how to check your child’s progress thus far. There is an incentive for all students who reach 33% completion by November 16! Please encourage them at home if they need to catch up!
7. Parent Conference Sign-ups: If you haven’t done so, please sign-up for conferences through SignUpGenius. I will be sending home a reminder for your appointment in your child’s red folder tomorrow. You should also be receiving an email reminder from SignUpGenius closer to the date! Thanks so much!
8. Parent Formation Retreats/Meetings for Sacrament Prep: Please mark your calendars with the dates below! If your child is receiving the sacraments this year, the meetings are a crucial part of your participation. The dates and locations are:
-Saturday, October 27th from 9:15am-11:00am in the Hall
-Saturday, January 5th from 9:15am-11:00am in the Hall
Please note that these are 2 different mandatory formation meetings to prepare your child and yourself for the Sacraments. The first date will focus on First Reconciliation and the second on First Holy Communion. Thank you for all you do to help prepare your child!
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let me know.
Love and prayers,
Sr. Tina
