Good Afternoon Families of Room 2!
Listed below are the important reminders and objectives for our week.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!

Important Reminders:

• Don't forget your child may bring in a snack and water bottle!
• Curriculum Night is this Thursday at 6 p.m.  I hope to see everyone there!  If you cannot make it, please let me know and I will send home the information you will miss.  Thanks!
• This week we will have our first counseling session on Tuesday from 2:30-3:00.  Each Tuesday at this time we will alternate with our library lesson and counseling.  
• Just a friendly reminder, we do not have school on Labor Day (Monday, September 1st).

Weekly Objectives:

Writing:  This week we will continue to build our writing community as well as practice meeting in writing conferences.

Reading: Our reading stamina is up to 30 minutes!  The class is doing awesome during reader's workshop!  This week we will discuss how "reading is thinking"!

Social Studies:  We are going to continue to discuss neighborhoods and communities.  Be on the lookout for vocabulary cards and a study guide in your child's expanding folder to use for next week's test.  Please leave these in this section of the folder!  We will remove them as a class.

Math:  This week we are going to continue to build our math community and review the expectations of math centers.  We will work independently as well as in small groups!

Have a great week!
