Second Grade at Shaker Lane - Room 202

Hi everyone! Due to the storm, no reading log was sent home, and no spelling words were assigned. We will not have a quiz on Tuesday. I did sent home as usual a math page for homework tonight. On Monday I will send home a single sheet of homework (subject may be math, vocabulary, reading skills, or social studies), and next Tuesday we will get back into the routine of reading logs and new spelling words.  Also, today I noticed several students turned in their reading logs and spelling but did not put their names on them.

In addition to wearing red/white/blue to support the Patriots they could also wear any other sports  team gear.. They also have permission from me to bring in sports cards and 1 or 2 trophies but trading of cards will not be allowed.
