Super Second Grade
Please send a snack each day!
Each second grader needs to bring their own healthy snack each day. Healthy snacks will help fuel our brains for the long morning before lunch.
Please send fresh fruits and vegetables, crackers or granola bars, pretzels, yogurt or other easy to eat snacks.
Do not send dessert items such as cupcakes, twinkies, brownies, or candy.
Please also do not send very messy snacks such as peanuts in the shell, soup in thermos, or large slices of watermelon. Do not send things that need cutting or special attention.
Our snack time is short (10 minutes).
Your child may bring a water bottle that has a sealed cap that will be kept at their locker, but no juice or colored drinks.
Please have gym shoes each day!
We have gym class every day, so your student needs to wear gym shoes to school or keep an extra pair in their locker.
Birthday Invitations and Treats
We love to celebrate in the second grade classroom. Feel free to send birthday treats to share with the class on your child's birthday. We can send home invitations for you if the invitations are for all the students in the class, all the boys, or all the girls. Following the GLS handbook, we will not send exclusive invitations to only a few classmates. This could hurt feelings and contributes to poor class atmosphere. Please remember that teaching acceptance and tolerance is the best way to raise a healthy well adjusted child.
