Happy First Day of School!

Hello families!

It was so great to have all of our classmates together for our first day of the school year! We spent our day learning all about each other, our classroom, and what we're looking forward to learning this year.

I wanted to briefly share with you all some information about our classroom.

Your students came home today with a "take-home binder." This will travel back and forth between home and school every day, taking with it homework, important information for you, and bringing in any information or notes for me or the office.

Homework in second grade is given Monday - Thursday and is 10 minutes of reading, and 10 minutes of assigned work.

The second grade students in my class will have a snack time and a brief motor break each morning around 10:00.  Second graders will not eat lunch until 12:30.  It can be a long, hungry morning until lunchtime arrives with no mid morning snack to nibble.  Please make sure your child has a snack each school day to tide them over until lunch time. Due to food allergies, Steward School is a ‘nut-free environment’.   When providing snack/lunch for your child, please be sure it does not contain nut products.  

Tomorrow I will send home a permission slip for your child to appear in my blog. The slip has detailed information, and there will be no personal identifying information, as I will be identifying students by just their first name. Please send this in so I can start posting pictures of your students! :)

Parent Seminar will be held on September 17th from 6:00-6:45.   Please come, check out our room and meet me!


Looking forward to a fantastic year!

Sincerely,
Mr. Kilham
