Goodbye January, Hello February!

Dear Parents,

Wow!  January went by so quickly!  Night Writes are due on Monday.  If you would like for your child to do more practice outside of school, you are always welcome to use the other January Night Write prompts.  Parents are teachers, too, and I always appreciate your help and support.

Thank you 2nd grade parents for providing a fabulous Friday Feast! The Super Bowl goodies will certainly make it on my Super Bowl Party menu next Sunday.

PARENT CLIMATE SURVEY:

The annual Round Rock ISD survey is now open for parents to provide valuable feedback on how schools are working and what can be done to improve campus and district practices.  The survey will be available through February 9th and can be access in English and in Spanish.  Parents are greatly encouraged to participate as the survey serves as the district’s primary source of obtaining feedback about their experiences and how they can be improved.  All surveys are anonymous.

READING LOG - CHARACTER TRAITS:

We are continuing to read There’s a Boy in the Girls’ Bathroom, and the class is really enjoying the book.  This week students will fill out a sheet in Google Classroom identifying two character traits of one character from the book.  Students must provide specific text evidence from the story to support their reason of choosing the trait to describe the character.
